Thompson D SMA Sinker Mahogany Adirondack Sunburst

Preston Thompson Guitars staan bekend om de directe, responsieve sound en zijn stuk voor stuk odes aan de legendarische Amerikaanse instrumenten uit de jaren 30. Meesterbouwer Preston Thompson en zijn kleine team van zeer getalenteerde gitaarbouwers maken custom akoestische gitaren die de look, het gevoel en bovenal de sound hebben van de allerbeste instrumenten uit dat gouden tijdperk. Thompson gitaren zijn licht van gewicht, sterk en worden gebouwd volgens de oude constructiemethoden. 
 
Preston Thompson Dreadnought modellen zoals deze zijn gebouwd om precies zo te klinken als de originele dreadnought gitaren van weleer. Deze krachtige instrumenten kunnen, indien nodig, eenvoudig het volume aan van een mandoline, viool en banjo. Verder voorzien deze gitaren vocalen van een haast volledige orchestrale backingtrack dankzij de respons in het laag. De respons in het middengebied biedt daarnaast ruimte voor al je indrukwekkende flatpicking riffjes.
 
Deze specifieke stijl 18 dreadnought maakt gebruik van een Adirondack sparren bovenblad en is voorzien van een Sunburst finish. Verder heeft het instrument met de hand gevormde scalloped Adirondack braces, sinker mahonie klankkast met tortoise bindingen. De comfortabele D-vormige mahonie hals draagt een ebben toets met 1930s stijl dot inleg en een ebben kopplaat met logo en Waverly stemmechanieken.
 
Inclusief Harptone koffer met TFOA paspoort.
 

Noted for their power and immediate, responsive voice, Preston Thompson Guitars pay tribute to the best American made instruments from the 1930’s. Master guitar luthier Preston Thompson and his small team of highly skilled craftsman produce custom acoustic guitars that have the look, playing feel and above all, the sound of the best instruments from that original Golden Era of guitar making. Thompson Guitars are built strong and light with time tested designs and construction methods, providing a lifetime of enjoyment.
Preston Thompson Dreadnought models like this one are all crafted to produce the tone and volume that the dreadnought guitar was originally designed to achieve. These are powerful instruments that, when needed, stand up to the volume of a mandolin, fiddle and banjo. They have the bass response that provides an almost full orchestral backing to vocals. Their mid-range response and bright trebles take flatpicking and lead playing to new levels of achievement.
This specific 18-style dread features a Red spruce (Adirondack) top and is finished in a beautiful sunburst. Other features include advanced X brace placement, hand graduated top thickness, pre-war hand carved scalloped Adirondack braces and sinker mahogany back and sides with tortoise body bindings. The comfortable D shaped mahogany neck has an ebony fretboard with 1930 style dot inlays, figured ebony headstock overlay and Waverly open geared tuners.
Includes Harptone hardshell case with TFOA passport.
