"De'ja Vu" Great Divide OM #1

This is our second instrument from the shop of Wilhelm Henkes and Rudolph Blazer in Tuebingen, Germany, but the first new one... and the first with our Logo and design elements. Willi and Rudolph have a well-earned reputation as one of Europe's premier vintage style shops both in the restoration and construction of traditional guitars.

They combine the best of old world craftsmanship and attention to detail with a thorough understanding of the great American tradtional guitars made in the 1930s. You can visit their webpage here

After having a chance to play a few tunes here in Colorado with Willi, we decided to create a series of "De'ja Vu" guitars from Germany using The Great Divide Logo, and the best old-time Martin style construction features.

This guitar just arrived and in addition to the obvious beauty... the tone is delectable. Every note is fat and buttery... and yet with a real feeling for that old-time Brazilian Rosewood tone.

The top is German Spruce with nice bear claws, and the sides are mostly quarter-sawn. This photo doesn't begin to do justice to the abalone peghead inlay... which dazzles you in person. I'll shoot a better one. It's much more colorful.

($8750 with hardshell, and a doggone bargain)
