This is a custom ordered guitar from Bill Meyer at Jack Straw Guitars. I had it built in 2016. This is Bill's interpretation of the no longer available 000-18 Norman Blake built by Martin and praised by players. I have included the guitars specs including some comments from Bill in the attached photos. The Sinker Mahogany is from a 150 year old stash found at the bottom of a river in Belize. I can answer any questions concerning specs, and have a photo file of the entire build process. I also have some simple sound clips recorded on my I-pad that i can Dropbox to anyone via e-mail. The clips do NO real justice to the sound of this guitar which is amazing! The Blake-design of a 12-fret neck on a 14-fret 000 body gives so much power and clarity to the sound. Guitar has a Baggs Lyric installed.
I am letting this guitar go with great reluctance, but the "beefy" neck and 1 13/16" nut just no longer works with my aging hands!
Guitar has a Baggs Lyric. Collings HSC.
