From Clinesmith: "This design is based on Joaquin Murphey's D-8 guitar built by Paul Bigsby in the mid to late 40's. The guitar is built using Eastern Hard Rock Curly Maple and a polished cast aluminum top plate and bridge. The beautifully toned pickup attached the the cast aluminum top plate, gives the instrument a rich tone that cannot be found in wood bodies guitars alone. The guitar is available as a single or double neck. These can be made as 6, 8, or 10 string instruments. All guitars come with Clinesmith/Paul Bigsby pickup, Blue Heron case, and a satin finish." Includes gig bag.
