Sound Pure's Take
Jaws were dropping all day long when we took delivery on this masterpiece! This is the most breathtaking Brazilian Rosewood acoustic guitar we have seen at the shop!
The Flamed Redwood top is a perfect match for the Brazilian back and sides, both aesthetically and tonally. Get bold, complex tone sustain and overtones of the likes you never thought existed.
This guitar is just as much a work of fine art as it is a tone monster! McPherson doesn't make many of these, so be sure to talk to a Sound Pure Guitar Department Representative today.
From McPherson Guitars
Hybrid Flamed Redwood: Our Hybrid Flamed Redwood tops combine highly figured Redwood with a graft of Adirondack Red Spruce. These tops feature the strong fundamental tone of Adirondack Red Spruce with the warmth and character of Redwood.
Brazilian Rosewood: Generally considered the best tonewood for steel stringed instruments; Brazilian Rosewood is a highly prized choice for back and sides. Endangered and becoming very rare, Brazilian Rosewood has everything other rosewoods have to offer and more. A rich powerful sound full of overtones and depth.
