Brazilian Rosewood Back and Sides
This 2004 Roy Noble HD-100 is in fantastic shape with only minor signs of prior ownership. Incredible Brazilian Rosewood back and sides, Bearclaw Engelmann Spruce top, and a rounded “V” profile Mahogany neck. Ecellent tone and playability
The Brazilian Rosewood peghead overlay features a diagonal ivoroid inlay, ivoroid binding on the top edge, and a Maple truss rod cover with “Noble” written down the center. Bone nut. Nickel Waverly tuners with ivoroid buttons. The shallow rounded “V” profile Mahogany neck is in great shape with no wear to mention. Ebony fingerboard has diamond MOP inlays, and black side dot position markers on the ivoroid fingerboard binding. Maple heelcap.
The Bearclaw Engelmann Spruce top is in great shape with nearly no sign this guitar was previously owned. Ebony bridge has bone bridge pins with abalone dots, and a bone saddle. Tortoise pickguard. Herringbone soundhole rosette, and herringbone purfling with Maple binding on the top edge of the top. The Brazilian back and sides are beautiful. It has a few tiny button marks, but it does not have any wear or issues to mention. Some of the nicest Brazilian Rosewood you could hope for. Maple binding on the back edge, Maple back strip separating the two-piece Brazilian back, and a Maple endwedge with an ivoroid (MOP dot) endpin installed.
This 2004 Roy Noble HD-100 is in as good of shape as you could hope for a 22 year old instument. It looks to have been played every so often and then stored in a case. Comes with the original hard case.
