PRODUCT DETAILS
This is a limited edition Doyle Dykes Artist series premium Grand Auditorium-sized acoustic, This is number 74 of just 200 made by Taylor in 2000. It is also signed on the back of the headstock by Doyle,
This guitar brings together beautiful appointments and stage-friendly features worthy of its namesake. If you have ever seen Doyal perform you will know that he demands a lot from his guitars and this example will not disappoint,
In excellent condition, n chips or dings and we would discribe it as "collector grade" Just some light marks a swirls form careful use over the last 24 years.
The action is astonishing and really easy to play and we have given it a thorough workshop check over. There is plenty of life left in the frets and they are nicely polished and crowned,
The DDSM has a solid Sitka spruce top, big leaf quilted maple back & sides, & an ebony neck with ½-circle pearl inlays.
As mentioned, the hard rock maple neck is very comfortable to play. There's also a Florentine single cutaway & onboard L.R. Baggs Doyle Dykes signature pickup system for a professional live performance from the DDSM.
A very attractive guitar, very hard to photograph due to its black shiny finish, but what you may see are light reflections and not to be confused with marks. The translucent finish also shows off the figured Maple as well the Spruce top better in the flesh that the photographs can replicate here. It is absolutely stunning to behold,
