The Rosewood 'Badger' Guitar


Originally built for myself, this guitar was sold before completion to a customer in Chile.
I wanted this guitar to be a bit of a showcase for Rosewood. It was built alongside the five Brian May Archtop MkII (Badger) guitars, but substituted the maple top for Indian Rosewood, and the mahogany neck for Brazilian Rosewood.
