Kentucky Master F-Model KM-1500 in Cremona sunburst finish - List Price $3995 See Ours!

Kentucky Master F-Model KM-1500 in Cremona sunburst finish Product Details & More! The new master model KM-1500 from Kentucky uses the finest, most highly figured Michigan Maple combined with the whitest, most fine-grained Adirondack Spruce. These solid woods are meticulously handcarved and graduated, just as were the fabled originals of the early 20s, to achieve the finest tone quality and volume possible in a new instrument. The delicately shaded Cremona sunburst finish is as close to the originals as you will ever see. The elegantly gold-plated and engraved tuning machines and tailpiece are in perfect harmony with the understated elegance of the finish and workmanship. Perhaps the crowning touch of elegance on the new KM-1500 is the traditional Fern inlay of Abalone pearl, carefully inlaid in just below the white pearl Kentucky logo.
