The first one didn't last, but this one just came in! The Rick Turner Compass Rose Acoustic Guitar has arrived at Heartbreaker Guitars. With a stunning Bearclaw Sitka Spruce over beautiful Indian Rosewood, this guitar is a treat for the eyes and ears! Rick only builds 4 or 5 of these a year. They are hand made by Rick in Santa Cruz, California. An extraordinary design includes a "floating" neck joint and fingerboard where not only the fretboard, but also the neck does not make flush contact with the body of the guitar. This creates maximum sustain and resonance on the soundboard allowing it to vibrate freely without obstruction. The bracing is reinforced with carbon fiber for rigidity and structural stability. Please call Heartbreaker Guitars for all details on this amazing Rick Turner Masterpiece!
