Mahogany BR 40

The BR-40 Blueridge guitar is certainly the workhorse of the Blueridge Contemporary line. Every detail makes for easy playability & a big, powerful tone. Features like a solid Sitka spruce top, mahogany back, sides, and peghead overlay. Gorgeous accoutrements like 5-ply body binding, mother-of-pearl inlays, and nickel-plated Kluson-style tuners. Authentic pre-war bracing ensures tone and volume just like the finest vintage guitars.

This guitar has the redesigned “torch” abalone/M.O.P. headstock inlay and abalone snowflake position markers.
