THREE (ACTUALLY, SIX!) LITTLE WORDS

"I love my new 'Bravo', Thanks!"
James Burns , Vancouver, BC

Words we never getting tired of hearing...  :-)

IT'S BEEN TOLD: ANOTHER SOLD!

   Our stunning (truly) Bravo One-off S1880 with wood binding from Bob's Boutique has been sold!

:-)

EXALTED SPALTED 16-B!

Bob with our newest 16-B: A One-of-a-kind Curly Spalted Alder! 

Perhaps the most visually stunning and unique instrument we've created to date (well...we have
made some unusual guitars :-) ) this one promises to be an uncompromising player too. 

Beautifully carved Sitka spruce top, carved Curly Spalted Alder back and sides (we have never seen it used on an archtop), Curly Koa Binding, end-piece, and heal cap, and a super lightweight Spanish Cedar Neck.  16" x 2 1/2" body, 25" scale, 1 3/4" nut width. 

This one will almost certainly be sold before it gets to the Boutique (it is about two or three weeks from final assembly and photographs). If you have seen all you need to see and want us to put your name on it, call or email Howard right away. 

TGIF to some lucky player!

p.s. oh, yeah, it's $17,500
