Used Froggy Bottom K Deluxe
$8,995.00
A stunning Froggy Bottom K Deluxe featuring an Adirondack spruce top and some downright spectacular curly koa for the back and sides, setup with optimal playing action and in excellent++ condition. All materials on this guitar are first-class, with the spruce featuring a nice parallel grain free from run-out and the koa displaying some of the most extravagant figuring imaginable. The Honduran mahogany neck is a comfortable rounded-over V shape, not too deep but a solid handful.
This is a lovely sounding guitar, with a quick response to both the pick and fingers, and the pleasant upper midrange of the koa provides a nice complement to the tight, articulate Adirondack spruce. Cosmetic appointments are elegant but tasteful and include an abalone rosette, abalone back stripe, flamed maple binding, and a unique scrimshaw heel cap with a floral design. Condition is almost entirely unblemished, the only indication of wear being a small foggy patch in the finish on the back lower bout, about the width of a business card, only visible from certain angles under specific light. There are no finish dings, scuffs, chips, or dents that I can find. Frets are in great shape, with only a slight hint of wear on the first four frets beneath the second string only.
