2019 "New World" by Hill Guitar Company "650-S-EL" SP/IN

This 2019 "New World" by Hill Guitar Company "650-S-EL" is a classical guitar with a solid spruce top and solid Indian rosewood back and sides, made in China for Kenny Hill and set up in his California shop, with a raised fingerboard.

About the Players Series

From the top-of-the-line "Players Series" of New World guitars, it has a hand-picked solid soundboard – the series uses spruce or Western red cedar – voiced for a rich bass, distinct trebles and powerful projection. The back and sides are beautiful solid Indian rosewood, with an ebony fingerboard and a Spanish cedar neck; the nut and saddle are bone, and every instrument has a double-acting truss rod in the neck.

This model also features a raised fingerboard, for easier left-hand positioning in the higher positions.

A fine choice for serious students and players.

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.
