Default All Koa 6 string guitar

I've been looking awhile for a (higher end) all koa 6 string guitar, to keep my all koa 12 string Ryan company.

Looking for something along the lines of a Goodall, Santa Cruz, or other well known luthier. Needs full/deep tone, as well as very flamey koa top. Yes, a hard to find combination.

Open to all body shapes, except for Dreadnaught.

thanks.

I have one, and it's fantastic.

Ted has a video up of this one being played, too. Maybe two of them.

I have a second all koa Santa Cruz H I could be talked into selling - not sure what you consider a "full, deep" tone in a smaller guitar, though -

I have an all-blackwood Taylor 426ce-LTD (very similar to koa) that has everything you need except the flamed top.

Thanks for the suggestions.

What I'm looking for is something that is of the same grade/flamey/curly koa as my Ryan 12 string. Here's what that guitar looks like:

Default Wow

What a truly outstanding guitar you have there. This is gonna be a difficult search. There are very few guitars in that caliber in the world, and much fewer with all Koa. Wish you best luck.

Default Nothing Sounds Like Koa

Nothing sounds like Koa. I think they sound the best. Amazing. Hope you find what your looking for. I know that I have bought a guitar from CozyCabin here on the Forum and he has an all Koa Taylor for Sale. Great guitar and great guy to work with.
