The Blueridge BR-73 Contemporary Series 000 acoustic guitar provides serious musicians a bold new take on a classic parlor-sized instrument. Handcrafted from select solid tonewoods like Sitka spruce and Santos rosewood, this guitar delivers a crisp yet balanced acoustic tone perfect for fingerpicking or strumming full chords. Its slim mahogany neck and rosewood fingerboard feel silky smooth under your fingers, letting you play with ease. Paired with delicate pearl and abalone inlays, the BR-73 melds vintage appeal with a modern spirit.

Solid Tonewoods Shape a Clear, Articulate Voice

The BR-73's solid Sitka spruce top and scalloped braces vibrate freely to produce bright, resonant tones with a quick decay. Santos rosewood back and sides add richness and warmth, balancing the spruce's clarity with their natural sustain and projection. Together, these premium tonewoods generate a harmonious acoustic voice ideal for any playing style.

A Neck Designed for Comfort and Speed

The BR-73's slim mahogany neck has an easy-playing profile that lets your fingers fly across the rosewood fingerboard with precision and speed. Its shallow C-shape and moderate depth provide comfort and familiarity for guitarists of all levels. The rosewood fingerboard, prized for its glassy smoothness, helps ensure seamless transitions between chords and single notes.

Vintage Touches Meet Modern Playability

While inspired by prewar parlor guitars, the BR-73 has a contemporary feel thanks to its 1.6875" nut width and moderate fingerboard radius. These specs strike a balance between vintage vibe and modern playability. Delicate pearl dot inlays, gold-plated tuners and a marquetry backstrip nod to traditional lutherie. A natural high-gloss finish and elegant rosette complete the BR-73's vintage-inspired look.
