Killer Deadwood Black Locust Grand Concert Guitar
 

https://soundcloud.com/jesse-matty/s...-locust-guitar


Up for sale is fine handmade guitar from Deadwood guitars based locally in the good ol’ US of A , in Athens , GA. This Grand Concert (I believe that what it’s called the actual dimensions are below). The top is wide grained hemlock top for a wonderful bass response. The back and sides are black locust and they came from the 2nd largest black locust tree ever felled east of the Mississippi. Black locust sounds very close to Brazilian Rosewood with out all of the import restrictions. This uses Jason’s of deadwood guitars patented spider bracing system for increased sustain and evenness of volume across the tonal spectrum. This guitar is a fingerpickers dream. Sweet tone and deep rich bass out of a smaller bodied guitar. . With the most sustain I’ve heard on any acoustic. This rivales any martin, taylor, or gibson as far as tone goes. Here are the full specs.

What an interesting guitar!
Black locust makes a really nice tonewood.
Owned one and played another.

Thanks!
This is one killer sounding instrument.

I just prefer larger bodies now.

This will make someone who likes smaller bodies very happy.
