Victor Baker Model 17 Masterclass 2003, Sunburst

This 2003 Victor Baker Model 17 Masterclass is a finely crafted archtop from one of the most respected modern luthiers in the jazz world. With a 17-inch lower bout and hand-carved Adirondack spruce top, it delivers a rich, open voice that’s both warm and articulate. The maple back and sides provide clarity and projection, while the floating Kent Armstrong pickup captures the natural acoustic character with remarkable nuance. Appointments are tasteful and refined, reflecting the "Masterclass" designation in both sound and craftsmanship. A top-tier instrument for players seeking boutique quality and tonal depth.
