The HDO Grand Ole Opry Limited Edition was made following the template of the most ubiquitous guitar played on the stage of Ryman Auditorium, the D-28. Celebrating the 75th Anniversary of Country Music's most celebrated performance venue, the fingerboard and peghead are adorned with the call letters of WSM 650, who broadcast live from the Opry every Friday and Saturday night since 1925.
