Fairbanks Guitars
Fairbanks FLG Standard
SKU: FB-FLG-STDThe Fairbanks F-LG is a powerful mid-sized flat-top that slots between the F-20 and F-35 in Dale Fairbanks's lineup, recreating a versatile design first introduced in 1942. It keeps the original's classical-inspired body profile and slightly deeper body for more internal volume, then builds on it with a lightly braced top and back, using a straight-braced red spruce X with scalloped tone bars. Mahogany back and sides and hot hide glue construction give it a strong midrange and remarkable headroom, so it stays clear and composed whether you are fingerpicking quietly or strumming hard. Built by hand in Burlington, Vermont, it is a guitar with a deep vintage voice and the build quality of a small American workshop.
