2019 "New World" by Hill Guitar Company "628-S" SP/IN

New World "Players Series" Features

As a New World "Players Series" guitar – the top of the line – it has a hand-selected solid soundboard (spruce or Western red cedar in this series) for a fuller bass, clear, distinct trebles and strong projection. Its back and sides are solid Indian rosewood; the neck is Spanish cedar with an ebony fingerboard and a double-acting truss rod, and the nut and saddle are bone.

The shorter 628 mm string length and a 50 mm nut make this a great instrument for younger players or those with smaller hands.

Serious students and serious players alike will be well served.

New World Guitars by Kenny Hill

"New World" guitars are made exclusively for Kenny Hill in China – in a factory in Guangzhou of which Kenny is a founding shareholder – with the same commitment to quality found in the Hill guitars made in California. Every instrument is given its final setup and adjustment in Hill's shop in California before being offered for sale, reflecting Kenny's commitment to giving players reasonably priced guitars without compromising quality.
