1910 BRW Washburn 435 Natural $4950.00
Description
This is a loud ladder braced 1910 Washburn Top of the line in 1910 model 435 Grand Concert Guitar.
The sides and back are Brazilian rose wood with a thick cedar neck and an Adirondack top. The guitar has its original tag inside. It has just had a neck reset, the fretboard was leveled, frets replaced where necessary, action set, and is playing wonderfully. Very Loud guitar! There is a back crack that was professionally repaired. At 115 years old, this 00+ size guitar has deep and "thumpy" bass, sweet mids, and clear highs. What a grand guitar!!! I use light tension steel strings (Thomastik) with no problem whatsoever. Needs nothing but a great player. Pyramid thin bracing like the early thirties Gibsons. No bellying, 25-1/2" scale. 1-3/4" nut and 2-5/16" at the bridge. HSC
The olden day guitar makers knew what they were doing!!!
