Overview

Deep, rich tone in a compact package.

For the vintage-guitar buffs, Blueridge Historic Series guitars are classically designed and made to Pre-War specs. The finest materials and workmanship make each guitar a masterpiece. Everything about them shouts hand-made quality. The BR-162 combining a slim, 12-fret neck on a standard 000 body results in an incredibly versatile guitar that has everything from deep bass to sparkling trebles and a sound perfect for folk, bluegrass and everything in between.

A select solid spruce top with forward-x bracing pairs with a body of solid Indian rosewood and the result is tonal perfection that compares favorably with guitars four times the price. Other great appointments include a delicate herringbone top inlay and back center stripe, white binding, Saga's exclusive Dalmatian-style pickguard, adjustable truss rod, and a unique mother-of-pearl and abalone peghead design. Case sold separately.
