Everybody knows that rare, Adirondack spruce was the favored top wood on the majority of the classic, prewar guitars that are so collectible and valuable today. The luthier at Blueridge have found a supply of this precious wood, and, when combined with the solid tonewood and lavish pearl inlay of our model BR-180A, the result is the finest tone and the most elegant look that money can buy! Compare the BR-180A to any prewar OR modern guitar costing thousands more–you'll be amazed!
