Jim Williams Dreadnaught with lr baggs anthem
Here is a lovely dreadnaught from the late Jim Williams from down under. Jim built wonderful guitars and passed away a few years back.
This dread is a players guitar-It has a huge voice that sings like a vintage dread. The guitar sports a sitka spruce top and east indian rosewood back and sides that help sculpt the sound. This guitar is well played and is far from perfect. Recently set up and given the once over at Southeastern Guitar repair in Buford,Georgia this September. The guitar is ready to play. Model wd40 1 3/4 inch nut 16 inch bout 4 inches deep at the neck 5 inches at the base lr baggs hard shell case 2400+ shipping It is an older guitar so it is as is but priced to move.

I changed out the bridge pins for some of bob colossi's dyed ones. Much nicer and I think it actually improves sustain. If you are not familiar with the late Jim Williams then do a google search. He has a bit of a cult following. An excellent deal for a hand made dreadnaught.

Cool looking dread.
Does it have a deep body or is the picture fooling me? Also, what's the neck profile?

The depth is typical dread. I will get the exact measurements later tonight. neck profile is a full c. The tone is really nice. I am having some wrist tendon issues making it harder to play a full size dread. I would keep it if it weren't bothering me
