Sakura Purple Pink Burst features elegant coloring

We have adopted a burst color that is a cherry blossom color with a slight purplish tinge that deepens from the center of the body toward the outside. This is a new color for 2023 that has been toned specifically for this model. Suitable for a spring model, the colors are vibrant yet slightly subdued for an elegant finish.

Cherry wood is used for the sides and back of the body, and the moderately hard characteristics of cherry wood create a powerful attack and a core tone, and the added sweetness unique to cherry blossoms makes it perfect for playing, singing, solo guitar, etc. It can be used all round.

Unique and beautiful inlay work

Richlite material is used for the fingerboard. Because it is an artificial material, it is resistant to environmental changes and does not easily go awry. It has qualities similar to high-quality ebony wood, and is also excellent in terms of sound, making it attracting attention as a next-generation material. The design features cherry blossoms and falling petals, highlighting the beauty of this model.

Beautiful and elegant head design

The pretty and beautiful design of dancing beautiful cherry blossom petals decorates the black top plate. By using GOTOH/SG301-01 pegs, the tuning is stable and you can play with confidence for many years. In addition, like the Headway HD-SAKURA '23 SF,S-ESU/ATB, this model also has a bee inlay that is a symbol of continuity.

Purple heart cherry pickguard

For the pickguard, we used Purple Heart, which has a distinctive purple wood surface. Headway's original pickguard, whose bright and beautiful reddish-brown color is shaped like a cherry blossom petal, is eye-catching.
