A real Young Guitar, played and not merely described.
This demo of the model comes from the Joshua Young Built Guitars playlist linked on Joshua’s original website.
The model
Built around a clear purpose.
The Young Showstopper begins with the same tonal foundation as the ‘Bone: a red spruce top, rosewood back and sides and ivoroid binding. From there, the visual language becomes much more elaborate.
Abalone top trim, a bound fretboard, multicolor backstrip, snowflake fretboard inlays and a custom headstock inlay come standard. Style 41 dreadnought builds begin at $14,500, with many rosewood species and other body shapes available.
