Hearts of palm. . .
Prenkert Classical Guitar
© Frank Ford, 2002; Photos by FF
A bit of the old and a bit of the new. We can always count on
Richard Prenkert to make a strong sounding and good looking traditional classical
guitar. Here, he adds a few of his own touches to the classic theme. A rosette
of end-cut palm wood shows those characteristic round spots which are actually
cross sectional views of the incredibly long hollow tubes that run up through
the tree's trunk. Modern gears and bridge design complete the "updated"
package. This one has a spruce top, and a characteristically brilliant tone.
