This is a wonderful example of the guitar that I designed to work really well in the recording studio. It was built for a good player in Tempe, Arizona. It has a sitka spruce top and indian rosewood back and sides. The neck is 5 ply mahogany, maple, rosewood, maple, mahogany. the body is quite large-about the overall size of a Dreadnaught but its’ thickness is severly reduced making it quite comfortable to play.
