Blueridge BR-243A

The Blueridge BR-243A offers authentic style with strict adherence to prewar instrument specifications. Each guitar is crafted with a select solid Adirondack top, hand-carved X-bracing, choice solid mahogany back and sides, ebony fingerboard, ebony bridge, and a traditional dovetail neck joint for pure prewar tone. The comfortable mahogany neck has a nut width of 1 3/4-inch, and when combined with the traditional 000 body, makes the BR-243A a truly remarkable guitar.
