Special, indeed. Here we’ve landed a gorgeous example of Kathy Wingert’s prowess at the bench that’s been dressed to the nines with gorgeous inlays along the fretboard, rosette, and headstock. Dramatic Black & White Ebony for the back and sides is the perfect contrast to German Spruce on top, giving the voice a smooth, smooth, smooth flavor with glassy definition throughout the registers. The top end has that sweet brand of sparkle that we see in so many of Kathy’s guitars. The lively string energy really draws in the player. On the visual side of things, Kathy has inlaid a series of flowers, vines, leaves, and a hummingbird, all rendered in vibrant Abalone and Pearl. Dark Ebony bindings contrast and set off the back and sides, and Kathy has also added a subtle arm bevel to the lower bout to make this 2017 Wingert EVC even easier to play.

We love Black and White Ebony. We've done several builds over the years and they have all had a sonic signature that was remarkable, and of course eye candy to spare. The natural beauty of the contrasting colors and the wood is remarkable. Kathy chose to pair this one with a German spruce top offering wonderful balance, brilliance, and shimmer. Bravo, Kathy. 
I love the added sparkle and pop! of the high end, and Kathy's excellent string-to-string balance. Dressed to the nines with striking Black & White Ebony and an elaborate Jimmi Wingert inlay scheme, this E model makes me struggle to choose between playing it and just staring at it. | Scale Length | 25.4 in |
