Fairbanks F-10 Standard, L-1 Style, All Mahogany - NEW

(NEW) We are very much enjoying the masterful updates that Dale Fairbanks has made to some classic designs, and this is our first F-10, a well known but little understood shape that many associate with the blues and Robert Johnson.  It does that stuff perfectly well, but don't count it out for almost any smile for which you'd pick up one of your smaller guitars.  This all-mahogany interpretation is warm and wood.  

Of course it isn't all mahogany, just the neck, back, sides and top... we've also got Madagascar rosewood fingerboard and bridge, Adirondack spruce braces, and maple bridge plate.  

The scale length is 24 3/4", with a 1 3/4" nut and 2 1/4" string spacing at the saddle.  Dale calls the neck shape an "Easy V" and we find it comfortable, not overly vintage, chunky or sharp.  The tuners are Schaller Grand Tune.  Includes a lovely custom Cedar Creek case with brown exterior and pale pink lining.  

Bonus: Dale was nice enough to include two pick guards on the side, one fire stripe and one tortoise.  If you'd like one of these installed before taking ownership of the guitar, we'd take care of that for you!
