Together, they built around 25 guitars a year and also restored vintage instruments. With no new Blazer \u0026amp; Henkes guitars being made, this 00018 is a rare opportunity!\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe guitar features a mahogany body with a German spruce top, which is particularly responsive thanks to its forward-shifted scalloped X-bracing and small maple bridge plate. The Martin body shape also has a touch of Gibson character, thanks to its small rectangular bridge. The beautiful sunburst was applied by Willi Henkes, and the guitar can even be seen shortly after this process in one of the accompanying photos!\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBuilt in 2018, this 00018 shows only very light playing wear on the top, along with a small finish blemish on the back of the body. The guitar is a wonderful example of the exceptional quality Blazer \u0026amp; Henkes were known for, and a beautifully sounding instrument to cherish for a lifetime!\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis guitar has been carefully inspected for condition and playability, then set up to our Gold Standard by a luthier. We make sure it arrives in your hands exactly as it should: sounding its best, playing effortlessly and ready to be enjoyed from the very first note.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"TFOA","offers":[{"title":"603","offer_id":54900746518875,"sku":"110687-603","price":8499.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0960\/6607\/7019\/files\/Blazer_Henkes00018SunburstMahoganyGermanSpruce2018-3.jpg?v=1794407703","url":"https:\/\/www.tfoa.eu\/en-de\/products\/blazer-henkes-00018-12-fret-mahogany-german-spruce-sunburst-2018","provider":"TFOA","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
