My classic heavy orchestral shape is now elongated and includes the taper in the back to match the length of my general and long bead general models for a fuller and fatter sound.
The length and taper are the only changes to this model which was originally inspired by some vintage Charlie Wilcoxon models from the early 1950’s. Classic signature Freer heavy orchestral shape with slight taper in back and elongated bead. The Hornwood™ is very dense and hard and adds a couple more grams of weight as well. The feel is something like rosewood or ebony but without the excessive vibration and low pitch that come with those woods. It is also extremely durable and will likely last you a lifetime if cared for properly.
