Sound Pure's Take
Leave it to Richard Hoover and Co to pull off the most delicate, warm sunburst you've ever seen...on a Mahogany top! We just can't capture in picture how this finish glows with a subtle range of orange/pinkish hues when you turn it around in the light. Gorgeous. Naturally, it sounds sweet, too--we've always loved the 1929 00s for their rare clarity (hard to find sometimes on an all-hog guitar), sensitivity, and warmth. Fun to dig into, too! Definitely an instrument that can go from Ballad to Blues with a flick of the wrist. We'll all shed a tear over here when this one finds a new home!

The Robb Report showcases the simple elegance of this SCGC model as a way to ‘own the extraordinary’ instead of ‘settle for the ordinary.’ Welcomed internationally as both timely and timeless, the 1929-00 has received sparkling reviews from the most prestigious publications in France, Germany, UK and the US. This instrument’s design pays homage to the simple and elegant instruments made for players enduring the Great Depression of 1929. Vintage inspired appointments include scalloped bracing, a period correct script style logo done tastefully in Ivoroid and beautifully executed Ebony pyramid bridge, bridge pins, tuner buttons, head-plate and fretboard. The rosette is an exercise in austere elegance with a rich tortoise ring nestled in a vintage Ivoroid border.
