Power and control at once. We love Wayne Henderson’s guitars, especially his Dreads, and D-28 numbers 380 is a doozie. Brazilian Rosewood body with Adirondack Spruce on top, 28-style appointments with herringbone trim and a zigzag backstrip, plus Wayne’s fiddle headstock and Waverly tuners. Grained Ivoroid bindings plus a soft brown tortoise-style pickguard remarkably reminiscent of prewar guards round out the package. This Henderson has been played in and opened up handsomely since 2006 when it rolled off Wayne’s bench and into eager hands. The voice balances some potent drive with a sweetness in the trebles that really fills out the sound. It’s a natural flatpicker, but we’re happy to report it’s sensitive enough for fingerpicking as well.

I don’t know if it’s the age or what, but this is one of the finest Hendersons I’ve heard. I particularly like the bell-like chime on the treble strings. Just incredible. | Scale Length | 25.4000 in |
