CW = Clarence White, a replica model of Mr.Momose's special D-28. The limited production was announced due to the availability of good quality materials, but it was sold out as soon as it was announced. It is said that only 21 pieces were actually produced, and although they were listed in the 2003 catalog, they were already unavailable. It is especially rare. It is difficult to obtain it in the market today because the number of pieces produced at that time was so small.

It is instantly recognizable with its enlarged large soundhole, unmarked fingerboard with white binding, and long saddle bridge.The body is made of the finest solid Indian rosewood, which provides a good balance of powerful lows and clear highs with excellent volume. It releases an elegant yet far-reaching mass of sound that only an all solid body can deliver. When played with a pick, the tight, clear sound of the rosewood body will naturally and comfortably set the rhythm. In the fingerpicking style, the solid sitka spruce responds quickly, producing a rich, high-quality sound that is very appealing. The big sound is also suitable for lead playing, making it a great all-around guitar. About HeadwayHeadway Inc. was founded in 1977 in Matsumoto City, Nagano Prefecture, Japan, with Mr.Momose, one of Japan's leading luthiers, as technical director. Initially, guitar production started with three people, Momose made all the necks for Headway's original acoustic guitars. These carefully crafted guitars, which were not mass-produced, quickly became known as the best of the best in the Japanese acoustic guitar world. Due to a factory fire, the company stopped producing acoustic guitars in 1983, but miraculously made a comeback in 2001 as New Headway. And now, they continue to produce high quality acoustic guitars.　Mr. Momose told, "My goal is to make guitars that people will play and nurture for the rest of their lives."
