These are powerful instruments that, when needed, stand up to the volume of a mandolin, fiddle and banjo. They have the bass response that provides an almost full orchestral backing to vocals. Their mid-range response and bright trebles take flatpicking and lead playing to new levels of achievement.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThese are traditional instruments and all models are based on the famous 1937 Herringbone Dreadnought, owned by the late, great Charles Sawtelle of the award-winning bluegrass band, Hot Rize. All feature Red Spruce (Adirondack) tops chosen for tap tone and stiffness, advanced X brace placement, hand graduated top thickness, pre-war hand carved scalloped braces, nitro-cellulose lacquer finishes and time-tested design features such as dovetail neck joints.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eNeck Width 1-3\/4\"\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eString Spacing 2-5\/16\"\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSoft 'C' Neck Profile\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eNeck Thickness at 1st Fret  .852\"\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eNeck Thickness at 10th Fret  .940\"\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e4 lbs. 7 oz.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e#2100\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEnjoy the video demonstration by our friend, Doug Yeomans.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"The Fretted Buffalo ","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45156114858093,"sku":"2100","price":13490.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0604\/6934\/6413\/files\/IMG_2771.jpg?v=1778263167","url":"https:\/\/thefrettedbuffalo.com\/products\/used-preston-thompson-d-b-a-brazilian-rosewood-adirondack","provider":"The Fretted Buffalo ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
