Modeled after American designs from the early 20th century, The LH-600 archtop guitar is completely hand-carved from select, graduated woods and features a nitrocellulose lacquer finish and unparalleled acoustic projection. Our LH-600 is an authentic replica of the original archtop acoustic guitars from the 1920’s. The top is hand-carved from graduated spruce, and the hand-carved back and sides are highly flamed maple. The LH-600 also features hand-buffed nitrocellulose lacquer for superior acoustic projection, a one-piece mahogany neck with vintage "V" profile, Grover tuners and a compensated adjustable ebony bridge. With its exceptionally robust tone, carved body and vintage design, jazz players and archtop enthusiasts will love this professional model. The LH-600 includes a featherweight case with "The Loar" embroidery. It is available in vintage sunburst (LH-600-VS), natural (LH-600-NA) and black (LH-600-BK) finishes.
