This 2018 Waterloo WL-K Southwest is an exceptionally light, responsive guitar weighing under three pounds, with a dry, transparent voice and remarkable clarity. It has a quick, lively response that captures every nuance of your playing, with excellent note separation and just enough harmonic complexity to keep things interesting. The 12-fret body, 24 7/8" scale, and comfortable oval neck make it especially enjoyable for fingerstyle, while its versatility suits roots and singer-songwriter playing beautifully. The hand-painted Southwest stencil gives it a unique vintage character, inspired by the rare Kel Kroydon guitars of the 1930s. Spruce top, mahogany back and sides, carbon fiber T-bar neck, and minimal lacquer finish. Includes a TKL Waterloo stamped hardshell case.
