Just when we thought our day couldn't get any better, this 2016 000-14BA came strolling through the door from PKT Guitars' workshop in Sisters, Oregon. It was something of a homecoming, too, since the Brazilian Rosewood back and sides came from our own private stash--and brother, was it good to see that straight-grained set return to us joined with a 45-style center strip. That's right: this 000-14BA is our first Dream Series guitar with Preston Thompson!
20 frets' worth of diamond-cut articulation and string-to-string balance, 4lbs. 2oz. of butter-rich tone, and one wickedly sunburst Adirondack Spruce top to make this a tall, dark, and handsome work of art. The rounded soft-V neck profile feels smooth as glass, and the finish is polished to a mirror shine to match the sparkle of the trebles. Individual notes have serious sustain, and the trebles in particular have a colorful bloom that swells after the initial attack. A powerhouse in standard, this PKT 000-14BA sounds absolutely ferocious in dropped tunings--Drop D was punchy and crisp, but DADGAD and DADF#AD were whole orders of magnitude rich and voluminous.
To say we're excited is an understatement: this guitar's voice and looks are in perfect harmony: individually impressive, but masterfully dovetailed as a whole.
