The DSS-17 is a slope-shoulder dreadnought built with cool ‘30s era looks and rich tone. The solid Sitka spruce top features scalloped braces, antique white binding, and a gorgeous Whiskey Sunset finish. The back and sides are solid mahogany. Appointments include a straight rosewood bridge, tortoise plastic pickguard, and Golden Age Relic open gear nickel tuners.

PICKGUARD NOTE:  Sept. 2021
Due to a shortage of faux tortoise pickguard material, this model will be built with a black pickguard as necessary.
