A premium example of German lutherie duo Blazer & Henkes–this 1999 Déjà-Vu Phoenix D-45 is as stunning to the ears as it is to the eyes. Straight grained and light-colored Brazilian Rosewood back and sides is set up with a tight-grained Alpine Spruce top; extensive 45-style Abalone appointments throughout–and a fantastically wide open and colorful voice. This instrument sings with every single note. The neck has just a touch more girth for that proper prewar hard V profile (feels great), and the setup is, frankly, perfect. Fine finish checking only adds to the impression that this is a prewar powerhouse.
