Blind Blake's Gear
Blind Blake is often associated with the A1313 Carl C. Holzapfel concert guitar, circa 1917. Although much of the discussion around his guitar revolves around a single retouched photo, this image, sourced from Hauverguitars, suggests that the instrument has a dark top. This characteristic has led to speculation about its composition, possibly mahogany or koa wood. Given Blake's career as a professional musician and session guitarist, it's likely he played various guitars, but this particular instrument remains a significant part of his legacy.
