BL model bodies are hand carved from quality Black Limba [Korina] and finished with translucent oil based Pigment & Dye. No grain fill is used in producing these guitar bodies and a thin Satin top-coat completes their production. This combination preserves as much natural resonance as possible and also means that your guitar will 'age / wear / naturally relic' much faster than a guitar than most guitars which are heavily grain filled and completed with a thick clear laquer topcoat. You will feel, hear, and see the differece.

This is a very versatile voicing but it's lower output really shines with Country, Slide, Blues, or Rockabilly players and Chicken Pickers. Don't give it another thought, 'this' is your jam!
