Its always a blast when I have a special project in the shop, and this guitar definitely qualifies. From stem to stern this guitar has it “goin on!”. Starting from the top it has my inlay interpretation of an Alphonse Mucha painting (not sure of the title) done with pearl and various stained woods. I also did a […]
This great Model 16 laminate just shipped to live in sunny Florida! SUPER heavy flame faces on this one. Smaller body depth for a comfy feel. The Peter Bernstein style pickguards are very popular right now. Having the controls that close is definitely convenient. The sound was very crisp and defined with the maple faces […]
The summer guitars are going great! Lots of pictures again. The shop benches are covered with parts and tools for all the cool projects going on. Most of the guitars will be assembled by the end of the week. Stoked! Then on to staining and painting. Guitar mania with no end in sight! >chest pump!<

Here’s another Model 14 from the spring batch of guitars. This one is going to my client Robert and is a semi hollow with a small inner block. Very similar to the full hollow version I did at the same time for Martin Snow. I dig the satin finishes with the violin brown stain, looks […]
Here’s the guitar Ive been working on for Martin! Shipped out to live down south the other day. This is a fully hollow version for a more acoustic archtop vibe. I gotta say the smaller instruments are my favorite. Tight punchy tone but still with the archtop vibe. The ones with the center blocks have […]
The spring guitars are all done and are starting to be delivered one by one (photo finals coming soon!), and the work continues on the summer guitars! Lots of progress on all fronts. The summer guitars are probably a bit past the midway point in rough construction. Lots of pics to share!! Mixed processes and […]
SOLD Here’s a cool guitar that I am excited about! My client Brian commissioned me to make a Les Paul size guitar (pics of that soon- its awesome!). The spalted maple I ordered came in a huge huge piece so I immediately decided to make an extra guitar from it. And here it is! It […]
