Josh White Custom Guild

[Blackfire]

The history detectives plan to track down a guitar that was owned by Josh White. They have a great interview with Josh White's son who examines the guitar. It appears to be an F-20 with nylon strings, and a very wide neck, like a classical guitar. It also has 12 frets. Carlo Greco must have made it for him. You must see the video. The guitar sounds wonderful:
