D-70-VA | Master Series handmade dreadnought guitar
D-70-VA overview
handmade dreadnought guitar, solid spruce & rosewood, ebony fb, real abalone, vintage aged
Richwood Master Series are all handmade acoustic guitars, made of premium selected tonewoods, professionally set-up before packing.
Our D-70-VA model is the top instrument of the Master Series. It features an AA solid sitka spruce top, Indian rosewood sides and back, ebony fingerboard and bridge and extensive real abalone inlays. Due to the wood choice, these instruments respond and project exceptionally well. Again an instrument that will positively amaze you when you pick it up. The dreadnought is commonly seen as a strumming instrument. The loud tone and the bold and sonorous low end really shine when played with a pick. The big body gives the D-70 a full sound with lots of detail and lots of dynamics.
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.
