2015 Waterloo WL-14 LTR
The WL-14 sings with the focused low end and punchy midrange you'd hope it to; it's a top-notch ragtime and blues picker, just like the Kalamazoo KG-14 from which it takes its inspiration.
This example features a Sitka sop, a thin nitrocellulose sunburst finish, simple appointments, and a mid-1930s neck carve with a chunky, somewhat rounded V neck, 1-3/4” nut, and a 1st fret thickness of .980”. 24.75” scale, 2-3/8” string spread at the saddle. Rosewood fingerboard with simple dots, truss rod, ebony nut, vintage style Stewart MacDonald Golden Age tuners, and a silkscreened logo. Firestripe pickguard, bound soundhole, and an ebony bridge with bone through-cut saddle. There is a K&K pickup that’s been professionally installed and a strap button on the neck heel.
The guitar is in excellent condition and shows very little playwear to its finish and frets. It has been set-up here at Folkway and plays easily with and action of 5-6 64ths and 12-54 strings.
With original hardshell case.
