Home / Shop / Brand New Preston Thompson D-SBA-42, Shipwreck Brazilian/Adirondack
Wow, and wow. We’re struck by this one from our friends at Preston Thompson Guitars—it’s a real force of nature. One of our clients commissioned this build with us, and we’ve had such a blast collaborating with him and the PKT team. The voice is immense, and balanced, with striking clarity and power in the trebles and a bottom end that is rich and palpable. Pairing up handsomely with an articulate and even midrange to boot. And this isn’t surprising, given what we’ve heard from other Shipwreck builds—Thompson’s supply of Shipwreck Brazilian Rosewood is growing thin, while their extant guitars are growing in popularity (and tone as they open up). Adirondack Spruce on top with a well-executed 42-Style trim package throughout, gold Waverly tuners, and a K&K Pure Mini pickup. This D-SBA-42 has it all, and we’re so excited to put in the hands of someone who we know will cherish it. Interested in a build of your own? Give us a shout! We love working with folx on custom projects big and small.
