Supro Americana Series Sahara Guitar - Wedgewood Blue Metallic
The Sahara is a wide-body reproduction of the single-pickup electric guitar that was manufactured in Chicago during the early 1960s. This historic reissue guitar mates a chambered body with a newly developed, composite âAcousti-glassâ top. This updated construction preserves the instrumentâs Art Deco aesthetics and timeless, semi-hollow sound while improving its acoustic resonance and tuning stability.
The Saharaâs vintage-correct tuners, dobro tailpiece and adjustable rosewood bridge are joined by a faithful replica of the legendary Vistatone pickup to bring you a fully realized and worthy reissue of this classic Supro guitar.
