Described as the \"new old guitars of the future,\" Pre-War guitars are not the same as other vintage-inspired guitars. They are designed to have the sound, the feel, and the look to match. Pre-War produces perfectly setup, old-sounding, and old\/beat-up looking guitars.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe Pre-War 12 Fret Dreadnought captures the sweetness and power you only get from this design. The 12-fret neck subtly changes the position of the bridge on the massive slope-shoulder dreadnought body. The result is articulate response balanced with endless headroom. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eWhen you build this design by hand and use only the finest materials available, the results are impressive. Each Pre-War guitar lives up to the hype. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis 12 Fret Dreadnought was completed in 2021. It features a Shade Top amber sunburst on finish, and the herringbone trim looks just right. This one was made with a \"1.5\" distress level, so it has the feel and vibe of a played-in—but well cared for—vintage relic. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBuilt with an Adirondack top and Brazilian Rosewood back and sides, this Pre-War packs a big, bold sound that is articulate and detailed across the register. It has treble that cuts and shimmers, but there's plenty of warmth and low-end content as well. Chords are sweet, and single notes shine. It has a wide dynamic range—with a soft touch, it is sweet and pretty, but when you dig in, it comes alive. Perfect balance of clarity and sweetness with raw power.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis 2021 Pre-War Herringbone is gently used. Because of the 1.5 distress level, it's hard to tell what is authentic wear and what was done by Pre-War. Most importantly, the frets are clean and it plays nicely. It has a 1-3\/4\" nut width and a sizable V neck profile. The previous owner installed a strap button on the neck heel. Pre-Wars are known to be bluegrass cannons, and this one absolutely fits that description. But to be fair, it has a much wider range than just the bluegrass genre. Like a good old D-28, it is a versatile guitar that seems to do everything well. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"UTF-8\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003ePre-War Guitars advertises a build time of 24-30 months, but this 2021 12 Fret Dreadnought is ready to ship to your door! It includes its original Geib-style hardshell case. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Reemes Music","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53838669873471,"sku":"RMC-MUS-G94195447","price":6249.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0990\/7535\/9039\/files\/2021Pre-War12-FretDreadnought_66531_-Detail05.jpg?v=1782094495","url":"https:\/\/www.reemesmusic.com\/products\/2021-pre-war-12-fret-dreadnought-66531","provider":"Reemes Music","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
