BSG P42F 45 style Macassar Ebony Cedar

With this P42F, BSG demonstrates how classic proportions and an exceptional choice of tonewoods come together to create a distinctive, refined voice!

BSG Guitars builds acoustic guitars with unmistakable individuality, combining traditional shapes with surprising tonewood choices. This P42F in 45-style perfectly illustrates that philosophy: a compact 0-size body with a 12-fret construction, executed in the rare combination of Macassar ebony for the back and sides and cedar for the top. A guitar that stands out both visually and tonally.

The 0-body size with a 12-fret neck construction is a classic format dating back to the early 20th century, when it was the standard for parlor and fingerstyle guitars. The short 24.75" scale length and the neck joining the body at the 12th fret create an intimate playing experience with a warm, focused tone. BSG deliberately embraces these traditional proportions while giving the instrument a modern character through the use of exotic tonewoods and a high-quality finish.

The combination of Macassar ebony and cedar is unusual but highly convincing. The ebony delivers a clear, articulate low end with strong projection, while the cedar top adds a rich, warm overtone structure and fast response. The guitar reacts immediately and sensitively to your touch, making it ideal for fingerpicking and more intimate playing styles. Supplied in a Hiscox case.
