Description
Walden D450 Standard 400 Dreadnought Acoustic Guitar with a solid spruce top, laminate mahogany back and sides, a rosewood fingerboard, and a gloss natural finish.
I've been playing guitar for over 30 years. I started as a studio musician in Los Angeles, and now I run Terry Carter Music Store and a music education platform that has taught thousands of students how to play.
A solid top and a focus on creating the best balance of sound, stability & price is at the heart of the STANDARD 400. A traditional scalloped-X braced soundboard paired with laminated Mahogany back & sides and genuine Rosewood fingerboard & bridge contribute to its tonal and visual beauty. A Glass-fibre reinforced neck provides exceptional neck stability and improves playability. The D450 is a Standard 400 Dreadnought guitar with a solid spruce top and laminate mahogany back and sides. It comes with a Walden gig bag.
