I believe this was the first and only guitar Howard built under the Schoenberg moniker. A 000-12 fret with an Adirondack spruce top and curly mahogany back and sides. This is one of a handful of guitars that incorporate Howard's rather exquisite style 30 purfling. At 3 lbs, 10 oz, this is the lightest guitar I own. It is wonderfully loud and responsive. I had the guitar re-fretted with 55090 Evo to make fretting easier for me. It remains one of the best 000s I've ever played. When I played it amidst a whole host of other guitars at Schoenberg, it kept calling to me.
