This twelve fret to the body guitar was made for a fingerstyle guitarist who wanted to create an intimate and old school picking sound with plenty of sustain.
Designed jointly with the player, it features ladder bracing, a classical style body, and a headstock found on some nineteenth century guitars.
The rosette is pearl and ebony diamonds, inlaid into a European spruce top.
The body wood is New Zealand grown Tasmanian blackwood, which produces a tone similar to mahogany. The binding is rosewood with the fretboard and a traditional nineteenth century bridge in ebony.
