My Guitar Notes

alpine white

Alpine White is the name of a guitar finish, a bright solid white used on the bodies of instruments, and it is catalogued in this atlas as an entry because instruments are often identified in a maker's catalogue by the colour of their finish rather than by their own model name. The treatment appears on solid-body guitars from several manufacturers, sometimes over a natural wood binding or in combination with gold or black hardware. The source record here gives the name of the finish without naming a maker or a model, so this page states only what the catalogue records and makes no claim about which instruments carry it.
