Offered for sale:
Used 2019 Froggy Bottom Deluxe Grade D-12 of Guatemalan Rosewood and Adirondack (red) Spruce and a Sunburst top, serial number S2142.
This Guatamala Rosewood is as striking as any rosewood I’ve seen and of course a tone to match. Acoustically it is very reminiscent of my 1938 Gibson J-30, just missing the decades of aging (and fragility).
This guitar is in excellent condition showing limited playing time.
Froggy says:
The Froggy Bottom D12 is our version of the original 12-fret Dreadnought design – a not-too-distant cousin of the Froggy D14. A requested model since 1971, this traditional 12-fret, slope-shouldered dreadnought has the powerful bottom end common to dreadnoughts, while retaining the power and clarity of the D-14 across its range. The Froggy Bottom D-12 brings an interesting and complex range of overtones to the table, tonal qualities that it shares with other Froggy Bottom 12-fret designs.

*Please note: we do our best giving descriptions of used pieces. We have found it impossible to describe every mark on an instrument or amp that is not in the "mint" category. Also, what's important to you may not be important to someone else. For example, you may say, "I don't care what it looks like as long as it plays or sounds well." Another person may say, "Body cosmetics are very important to me so tell me about every scratch, nick and blemish." So, please ask the questions that are most important to you. If you ask they will be answered. They are free and there's no limit. Additional photos can also be made available.
