471 - Brad Davis's CW-28!
I had the pleasure of meeting Brad Davis at
Merlefest 1999. Not only is he one of the finest flatpickers in the world,
he's also one of the nicest folks I've met in a long time! Brad's CW-28 (serial
number 471) was made
in December of 1991. The
Adirondack top has very tight grain. The bridge has been replaced several times
because of the stress the Brad Bender puts on it. The most unusual aspect of this CW is the Brad
Bender. John Holman tells me he helped Brad drill the holes for the Bender so, we'll
blame him for the mod! The pickguard on this guitar is one of the most unusual CW pickguards I've
seen so far. It's beautimus! |
