Blazer and Henkes Phoenix Déjà Vu in Sunburst, (Used, Comm)

The Blazer and Henkes Phoenix Déjà Vu in Sunburst is a handcrafted acoustic guitar that channels the spirit of pre-war American flattops with extraordinary attention to vintage accuracy. Built in Germany by renowned luthiers Rudi Blazer and Willi Henkes, this model is part of their revered Déjà Vu series, which aims to recreate the tonal character, construction methods, and aesthetic of golden-era acoustics. The Phoenix combines premium tonewoods, aged nitrocellulose finishes, and historically correct bracing patterns to deliver a warm, open sound with remarkable responsiveness and projection.

The sunburst top is lightly aged and finished to reflect the look and feel of a well-preserved vintage instrument, while the body’s construction featuring solid East Indian rosewood and a Moon Spruce top produces a complex tonal blend of clarity, depth, and midrange warmth. The neck profile, nut width, and fretwork are all designed with player comfort in mind, replicating the feel of classic American acoustics from the 1930s and ’40s. Whether strummed or fingerpicked, the Phoenix responds with rich dynamics and an impressive balance across the frequency range.

This guitar stands out not only for its tonal and visual beauty but also for its dedication to authenticity. Each Phoenix Déjà Vu is built as a singular piece of craftsmanship, offering players the experience of owning a vintage-style acoustic without the fragility or maintenance concerns of a decades-old original. It's an exceptional choice for musicians who value history, craftsmanship, and tonal purity in an instrument that feels alive in every note.
