With this modern take on a vintage classic, the Waterloo WL-S cuts no corners while striving to meticulously recreate the look and feel of the highly sought after 12-fret Stella guitars of the 1930s. Featuring a 24 7/8” scale length and vintage-inspired ladder bracing, the WL-S offers a round note attack with detailed string clarity and separation. The solid spruce top and solid cherry back and sides, matched with the semi-gloss nitrocellulose finish further compliment the acoustical liveliness of this fine instrument. Boasting a vintage correct “Soft V” neck and weighing in at only 3 lbs, this WL-S provides one with playability and tonal quality that is reminiscent of having a conversation with an old friend.
