Description
The 220D returns! This 2024 version of the 220D keeps the red maple of the now discontinued 250d but offers a more attractive price! This is a long bore instrument with an otherwise indentical specification to the short bore 240D. The Red Maple gives a much greater projection and range of colours in the tone. The long bore gives this instrument a stable intonation and ease of play, making it one of the best instruments available in this price range!
