When Michael Millard and his team are given free rein to explore new possibilities, flawless and powerful guitars are the result. The Froggy Bottom Featured D-12 we have in the store today is the product of those explorations and Millard's fascination with a 1950's Roy Smeck Gibson "Stage Deluxe" that belonged to a friend of his father. Milard describes that guitar as "haunting; the sonority in the wound strings [was] just beyond words," and when he constructed this D-12 in East Indian Rosewood and Adirondack Spruce, he managed to achieve just that--a voice rich with resonance, sustain, and emotion. The construction is lightweight, but sturdy, and the soundbox offers great projection for flatpicking or fingerstyle. Milard's penchant for 12-fret designs places the bridge lower on the body to allow the Adirondack Spruce to respond instantly to the strings' vibrations. Curly Maple bindings and the smoky tobacco sunburst are a perfect counterpoint to the Abalone rosette and Ebony fretboard; the guitar is beautiful, from all angles. This guitar comes with the original TKL hardshell case.
