It is with great pride that we offer a guitar that has supported the greatest up and coming young guitarist of his generation. The story of this instrument was interesting to say the least. In 2018, Harry Takemoto came to visit us at DjangoFest NW and brought us several newly finished guitars to display at our booth. Christiaan van Hemert asked me if I had a guitar to borrow for some daytime jam sessions and I handed him this guitar in haste. As fate would have it Henry Acker borrowed the guitar and there was immediately a connection. I remarked at the time that this particular red topped model was not just great...but special. We drove back from the festival and soon after we flew to Shanghai where we received a text from Henry wanting me to reserve the guitar for him. In the past few years Henry has played all over with this guitar and made A LOT of waves with it. Now that Henry started playing a new guitar...this one will need to find a new home. We can surmise that in the future this guitar will be remembered when we look back at these recordings he made. Offered exclusively at DjangoGuitars.com! -Tommy Davy
