2013 Blue Ridge BR-40T Tenor Guitar
Overview: This super-clean BR-40T is basically a copycat of a Martin 0-18T model. The black pickguard makes it look '70s-retro but its sound and feel leans more towards the '40s versions of these guitars. The neck starts-off a normal Martin-style shape but thickens-up into almost a '30s Regal-style tenor neck as it approaches the heel. The sound is robust, warm, Martin-like, and woody. I think this one really hits the nail on the head -- it's impressive!
Repairs included: I gave it a quick cleaning, restring for GDAE tuning, and setup work. It's playing spot-on and ready to go.

Condition notes: It's quite clean with just the lightest of usewear here and there in the form of very light scratches and pickwear. It's completely original. The frets have only the tiniest use so I didn't level and dress them -- they're perfectly good to go.
It comes with: It's got a nice hard case.
