Blueridge BR 2060 Guitar

BLUERIDGE COMMEMORATIVE GUITAR - LONESOME PINE FIDDLERS
BR 2060

A true pioneering force of early Bluegrass music, the Lonesome Pine Fiddlers were responsible for shaping the early sounds of old-time string, bluegrass, and country music as well as inspired the legendary careers of other great players by the likes of Bobby Osborne, Jimmy and Paul Williams, and current Blueridge guitar endorser, Melvin Goins. To commemorate the 70th Anniversary of this legendary band, one of the earliest and longest running bands from the golden age of traditional American music, Saga Musical Instruments and the Cline Family have commissioned the newest member of the Blueridge line of guitars and first commemorative instrument ever produced — the Lonesome Pine Fiddlers 70th Anniversary Acoustic Guitar. Like the band, this new guitar also represents a 70 year history by being designed after instruments that would have been produced in the same year the band began its musical journey. Start your own musical journey by adding this fine new guitar to your collection.
