The 000-42 Modern Deluxe is a 000-14 Fret in East Indian rosewood under a European Red Spruce top, with VTS treatment on the top and on the Adirondack spruce braces. The X Brace is GE-Scalloped.
Abalone runs around the top and the rosette. The Golden Era Style 45 Snowflake inlays are abalone with mother of pearl on an ebony board bound in European flamed maple, and the ebony headplate carries the 1933 CFM Script Inlay. Liquidmetal bridge pins with abalone dots and Waverly gold open-gear tuners complete the hardware.
The neck is genuine mahogany in gloss, carved to the Vintage Deluxe shape with the High-Performance Taper, with a 1 3/4" nut on a 24.9" scale and Pleked frets.
Next to the 000-42, this one has the VTS red spruce top and the Vintage Deluxe neck in place of the Aging Toner top and Golden Era neck, and flamed maple binding in place of antique white. For the Modern Deluxe build with Style 28 trim, look at the 000-28 Modern Deluxe.
