A recent build from the fine folks at Preston Thompson, includes appointments such as Regency Torch headcap inlay, Regency markers and sunburst finish.
From Thompson:
"Preston Thompson Dreadnought
models are all crafted to produce the tone and volume that the
dreadnought guitar was originally designed to achieve. These are
powerful instruments that, when needed, stand up to the volume of a
mandolin, fiddle and banjo. They have the bass response that provides an
almost full orchestral backing to vocals. Their mid-range response and
bright trebles take flatpicking and lead playing to new levels of
achievement. These are traditional instruments and all models are based
on the famous 1937 Herringbone Dreadnought, owned by the late, great
Charles Sawtelle of the award winning bluegrass band, Hot Rize. All
feature Red spruce (Adirondack) tops chosen for tap tone and stiffness,
advanced X brace placement, hand graduated top thickness, pre-war hand
carved scalloped braces, nitro-cellulose lacquer finishes and time
tested design features such as dovetail neck joints."
Includes OHSC.
