San Francisco, CA January 1, 2011 – BLUERIDGE PREWAR GUITARS UPGRADED WITH ADIRONDACK TOPS!
The Blueridge Prewar Series—our Flagship line of acoustic guitars—has just been made even better by the addition of an Adirondack spruce top on every model! Guitar Historians, Collectors and Players all know that the secret to
that elusive Prewar sound on the finest vintage collectibles is the type of spruce used on the majority of those
instruments. The rare and costly Adirondack spruce has been unavailable for 50 years until the finest, high-end
“boutique” makers began to seek out supplies of this legendary wood. You can now buy an Adirondack top guitar
from almost any private luthier—and you’ll probably pay at least $4000 for the privilege on the plainest mahogany
guitar they make! The Blueridge Prewar Series combines the choicest, most select solid mahogany or rosewood with
the finest Adirondack spruce and carefully braces these tops in the best Prewar fashion. The result is new guitars that
look and SOUND like the best old ones! Our finest models have abalone pearl inlaid on every border, and yet the price for these guitars is but a fraction of what many private luthiers or even factories would charge for the almost identical article.
Blueridge offers this fabulous Adirondack spruce on several models within the line of all-solid guitars—making that Prewar sound available to the amateur and the working musician for a fraction of the price of the average boutique guitar! You might say that Blueridge has almost single-handedly made Adirondack available to the entire guitar- buying public—not just the wealthy collectors—and a new guitar with that elusive “Prewar” sound is now available to just about everyone—thanks to Blueridge!
