Our acoustic round-neck features the same maple sound well and JP Quarterman USA hand-spun cone that all Bayou's are equipped with. What makes the Bayou unique is our special plating process for the hardware. Sure, you've seen chrome on about every resonator out there. What you haven't probably seen before is our distressed look. The Bayou is available in Aged Brass and Aged Nickel (with matching Grover® tuners) that subtly hint that you're "new" Bayou is a classic vintage instrument that has been around the roots music stage a time or two.
