NEW ARRIVALThis very special Historic Series guitar is a loving recreation of Tony Rice’s infamous D28, a guitar previously owned by Clarence White, hence its name – The White Rice. With its instantly recognisable enlarged soundhole and overhanging fretboard, the original guitar is generally agreed to be one of the best sounding D28’s in existence. This guitar features a torrefied Sitka Spruce top and Indian Rosewood back and sides finished in aged nitrocellulose lacquer. Thanks in part to the oversized soundhole, the White Rice combines incredible power with an openness and resonance that is unique. Accurate to the original, this is the ultimate White/Rice tribute. Interestingly this example is a custom order with Rosewood bridge. Tonally it has a very complex sound, great depth and resonance, plenty of punch and attack, and well balanced with superbly articulated clarity - Quite simply it's a classic. The guitar comes in it’s original tweed hard case.
