Default Meet my new baby!!
The Small Concert is finally singing!!
Please let me know what you think....

This was collaboration of high grade woods that had been saved for a special project. It turned out very nice with a sweet warm tone and surprising volume and presence. Perfect for a fingerstyle player looking for an intimate instrument with presence and tone.

Rare “Spider Webbed” Madagascar Rosewood Back & Sides
Carter “LS” Redwood Soundboard
13 Fret 7 Piece Neck
Paua Abalone Bound Cocobolo Rosette
Bloodwood Purflings
Custom Soundport
Ebony Pyramid Bridge
Fossilized Mammoth Bridge pins
In-House aged Bone Nut and Saddle
Waverly Tuners

Absoloutely gorgeous, Peter! It has a look that is elegant, and manages to look both modern and vintage at the same time. I really like the detailing, and the redwood top is stunning. Any soundclips of it singing?

Thanks Fliss!
No clips yet. No one has played it yet and I wouldn't be of much help!

That's stunning. Thanks a bunch, Peter -- yet another luthier whose work I must now add to my "want" list....

Just fabulous! If I didn't just buy a new parlor last week, there's an excellent chance I would be buying this one. I just edited my post - I'm still looking at this and thinking "how could I justify it"!
