Yamaha CG171S Classical Guitar











The craftsmen at Yamaha specially redesigned the guitars in their CG series with slightly thinner sides and back as well as a thinner finish to deliver better sound response. These instruments also have thinner necks to increase playability, and are slightly lighter in weight, offering greater volume as well as extended comfort. The overall results are instruments that deliver a mature, balanced tone throughout their entire range with exceptional quality.

American Fender Stratocaster - Texas Special














The pickup that redefined the Texas blues sound. Overwound, calibrated, vintage style Stratocaster® pickups with plenty of midrange chirp, crystal highs and tight bass. Alnico 5 magnets and enamel coated magnet wire create the increased output that demands respect! Throw in a reversewound/reverse polarity middle pickup for hum canceling in positions 2 & 4 and you're transported back to Austin to watch another set from Double Trouble. OEM on the Stevie Ray Vaughan, Bonnie Raitt, American Texas Special, and many Custom Shop Stratocasters.
