This is a rare Brazilian Rosewood, Flamed Redwood McPherson MG-5.0XPH guitar. It is the top of the line that McPherson makes and they’ve told us this combination is no longer available so we are thrilled to have this one in perfect like-new condition. One glance at the pictures and you’ll see this is some of the finest wood you could make a guitar out of. The Redwood top is just stunning, with figure beyond compare. The Brazilian Rosewood is dramatic and rich in color and even the mahogany neck is figured. Bound throughout with flamed Koa this is a show stopper of a guitar. The voice is as rich and full with the trademark McPherson shimmer on top. This guitar is exquisite played fingerstyle and powerful when strummed and it’s equipped with a Baggs pickup system, so it’s as versatile as it is beautiful…

This guitar is catching the eye of every customer in our shop. It's simply breathtaking to behold. This is indeed one of the nicest Flamed Redwood tops you'll ever see and it is not just eye candy, it sounds amazing. Combined with premium Brazilian Rosewood, in a pair McPherson says is no longer available, the voice is powerful, rich and compelling. I feel right at home playing fingerstyle or strumming on this one. It has good brilliance on top of a warm, full voice. This is the holy grail of McPherson guitars.
