Gold Tone SM-Weissenborn+ Hawaiian Slide questions
What is the difference between the GT and SM+ Weissenborn models?
The GT features sapele construction and a natural satin finish. The SM+ upgrades to a solid spruce top, mahogany back and sides, original-style maple and mahogany rope binding, and a honey brown finish that more closely echoes the pre-war originals. The SM+ also has an ebony bridge with bone saddle for better tone transfer.
Does it have a pickup?
Yes, a passive bridge-mounted pickup is included for amplified playing. It captures the natural acoustic tone without any modification to the body.
