This little beauty is an absolute stunner. There’s something magical about the combination of Spruce and Maple, the entire violin family won’t use anything else! This maple exhibits a lovely Birdseye figure, mesmerising to look at… This guitar has a magical voice, loud, punchy, articulate and resonant- all of these things allow you to, ironically, play gently and lean into the sensitivity of the guitar. It’s verified, Parlours are my nailed on favourite guitars. This guitar is FOR SALE, please get in touch if you’re interested!
At the opposite end of the spectrum to the Parlour model is the MD. Huge room-filling chunk, absolutely made for fleshing out a mix or accompanying a voice. It’s a more than capable fingerstyle guitar that sings particularly sweetly in DADGAD, but it also enjoys a spell of strumming with the greater headroom afforded by the larger body. This Bog Oak showcases a lovely natural fade from tan to black a result of the ageing process while the Oak was submerged for many thousands of years as the tannins in the Oak reacted with the iron content in the bog magically transforming the greenish oak to the colours you see here. This guitar is FOR SALE, please get in touch if you’re interested!
Following a recent build with two Sunbirds, I had to go one better and stick an extra pickup in there. I’ve used a traditional Strat-style wiring to feel familiar and to keep things relatively simple. It’s a wonderfully articulate electric guitar. I wish I could keep it! I see lots of excellent music falling from these strings. This guitar is FOR SALE, please get in touch if you’re interested!
This incredible little powerhouse is SOLD. You can read the whole story here. If you’re interested in commissioning something similar, please do get in touch via the contacts tab.
