D-50 | Master Series handmade dreadnought guitar
D-50 overview
handmade dreadnought guitar, solid mahogany & mahogany, satin finish
Richwood Master Series are all handmade acoustic guitars, made of premium selected tone woods, professionally set-up before packing.
The D-50 has solid mahogany top and mahogany sides and back. Inspired by guitars from the 1930’s, this guitar has a very warm sound that reacts in a very lively way. The dreadnought guitar is typically a strumming instrument, the tone is rounder, the attack slower, typical features that you would look for in a strumming instrument. Of course you can fingerpick on a dreadnought, but if that is your main playing style, perhaps an A-50 or P-50 would be more suitable.
Richwood Master Series offers guitars for a playing styles. The built quality has the same impeccability throughout the line. Whether you are buying a D-20, or a G-70-CEVA, all woods are dried to the point that you will receive the best and most stable instrument you could wish for. All Master Series guitars are professionally set-up before shipping.
The satin finish is perfect for this guitar, it adds to the natural mahogany look.
The technical and aesthetical advanced features include bone fittings, a double action trussrod, voluted headstock joint, cotton capped X-braces, mahogany back braces, high grade Derjung machine heads, USA D'Addario EXP16 coated phosphor bronze strings.
