This limited-edition guitar is a rare chance to own an accurate pre-1964 Carter Stanley acoustic reissue.
Blueridge Guitars is proud to introduce the BR-1060 Carter Stanley Memorial Blueridge Guitar. This version
of Carter's most famous guitar represents the instrument as he played it up until 1964. By this time, his 1950s D-28 with
the standard size pickguard had seen a lot of action as Carter's standard stage instrument. He had it customized with hexagonal
abalone fretboard inlays and two mother-of-pearl dots on the bridge and used it to create some of his most legendary works.
Additional Carter touches include the famous White Dove headstock inlay design crafted of fine abalone and pearl which is
joined on this memorial-edition guitar with his signature inlaid in gold wire. Each guitar in this limited-edition run of
instruments is individually signed and numbered.
Like the best instruments, Blueridge guitars aren't overbuilt; they're
crafted to be light and resonant. Meticulous attention to detail and quality craftsmanship is evident in the traditional,
forward-position, hand-carved parabolic X-bracing which allows the solid Spruce top to ring loud and true. The slim mahogany
neck joins the body with a traditional dovetail neck joint and has an adjustable truss rod.
