All-Koa 2005 000 from the one and only Wayne Henderson—a true rarity. This 12-fret beauty features herringbone trim, abalone around the rosette, and dot inlays on the fingerboard.
It’s not often we see an all-hardwood build from Wayne, but after spending time with this one, we wish it happened more often. This guitar is full of personality—rich in character, big on volume, and crystal clear across the register. Hands down, one of the most diverse-sounding 000s we’ve had through the shop.

Wayne’s guitars always have that unmistakable touch—lively, honest, and full of soul—and this all-Koa 000 is no exception. What stood out to me here wasn’t just the clarity or volume, but how balanced it is. Koa can sometimes lean bright, but this one has warmth and depth in equal measure. The response under the fingers is quick, and it holds together beautifully whether you're playing soft and sweet or digging in with a flatpick. It’s a deeply musical instrument—one that rewards both nuance and energy. 
Dang Wayne builds 'em loud! This 12-fret 000 knocks me off the couch and up onto my feet with the immediacy of the response and the sheer power under the hood. If you want a smaller 000 box that you can really drive hard and have it keep up, this Hendo is how you get there. Seriously, that open 6th string pushes out some potent decibels, and it doesn't choke when you fret up the neck either. This is one of those livewire, exciting, raring-to-go sort of guitars. 1 in stock
