This McPherson MG 3.5 is a stunning example of their craftsmanship. The top is Redwood paired with gorgeous East Indian Rosewood for a wonderful, full and warm tone. This has a 1 3/4" nutwith, Koa binding, and is outfitted with an L.R. Baggs RTS2 system specially designed for McPherson, with a discrete volume wheel in the soundhole. The body depth here is 3.5" inches, making for a really comfortable player while retaining excellent volume and tone.
McPherson's guitars are unique. The offset elliptical soundhole increases the flexible surface area on the central part of the instrument, creating extended resonance and full tone. It also has a cantilevered, carbon fiber reinforced neck that is extremely stable. Since the fretboard is not fixed to the top of the instrument (see photo), it allows the body of the guitar to vibrate at its full potential, increasing resonance and boosting sustain. This plays wonderfully with great response. This McPherson MG 3.5 comes with an Ameritage hard case (with built in humidification system), plus a full set up from one of our luthiers.
