Richwood D-50 Master Series handmade dreadnought – solid mahogany top, mahogany back & sides, satin open-pore finish, bone nut & saddle, Derjung Deluxe tuners
A single strum on the D-50 and the room blooms with the plush glow only solid mahogany can deliver. Inspired by pre-war dreadnoughts, this entirely hand-built Master Series instrument trades sheer volume for a round, slow-blooming attack that wraps every chord in velvet—exactly what a dedicated strummer dreams of when leading a roaring sing-along or laying a warm rhythm bed in the studio. Touch it lightly and the fundamental note emerges first; lean in and overtones stack in rich layers that linger just long enough before melting away. The open-pore satin finish lets the wood breathe, amplifying that organic response while your fretting hand glides along the silky neck with zero resistance.
Crafted from tonewoods dried to perfection, the D-50 feels alive in the hands yet remarkably stable across climates. A double-action truss-rod invites ultra-low action without fret buzz, and the voluted headstock joint absorbs long-term string tension for decades of reliability. High-grade Derjung chrome tuners turn with micro-precision, locking the coated D’Addario EXP16 set in pitch so you can focus on emotion, not mechanics. Every detail whispers quality—bone nut and saddle for crisp transients, cotton-capped X-bracing carved to unleash mahogany’s mid-range bloom, Indian rosewood fingerboard radiused to 14″ for effortless barre chords.
Elit Music adds the final layer of confidence: more than 30 years of passion and know-how, a vast selection and a professional setup that arrives gig-ready right out of the case. Strum once and discover how much guitar truly fits into the Master Series budget.
