Default NGD, Kathy Wingert 2000 Model 'E' BRW/Master Sitka/Koa she is here

I am getting pretty darn excited about getting my new guitar, a one off 2000 Kathy Wingert model 'E' called 'wild horses'. I can almost feel her in my arms already. BRW/Mater Sitka Spruce with Ebony compliment and KOA binding. Some bling that was done by Kathy herself. I will post a full size post after I get her.

Nice. You're in for a treat. Kathy's guitars are among the very best I have played.

I'm getting my harp guitar back from its year-one tune-up with Kathy this week. Excited.

Congratulations! I have one of Kathy's Model E's (German/Cocobolo) and have played many of her fine instruments. You are in for a real treat. Enjoy and I look forward to hearing about your experience playing the beauty.

Best,
Jayne

Kathy's guitars command high prices, and deservedly so.
