If you've been searching for a Golden Era guitar that isn't priced like it's made of gold, then Blueridge guitars are for you. Reminiscent of fine American guitars built prior to WWII, Blueridge guitars are made with the same techniques as their antique counterparts, including many by-hand processes.
The BR-73 is the flagship of the 000-sized Contemporary Series of
acoustic guitars. Using solid spruce for tops, hand-carved braces,
choice Tonewood for the back and sides, and a traditional dovetail neck
joint on a solid mahogany neck, we have created a guitar with great
looks and tone. The intricate pearl and abalone inlay work on the
fingerboard, body, and headstock and delicate marquetry center strip on
the back are touches of fine art. The comfortable 000-sized body and
slim mahogany neck make it easy to play. Contemporary Series Blueridge™
guitars offer pre-war performance with a clean, modern look and style.
