Build Thread: LeGeyt CLM - Carpathian Spruce and Koa
As many of you know, I play period music as a member of the Fab Florentines. Here's a recent head shot.
When I played Burton's instruments at SBAIC and discovered his penchant for marrying old world styling with modern design, I decided to commission a piece to allow me to lay down sweet lute leads and thumping bass lines at the same time.
Here's Burton with the prototype:
The scale length is not for the feint of heart.
Specs TBD but definitely going with a Hoffee case.
Ok, I lied. I was kicked out of the Fab Flor 3 years ago. I've actually commissioned a CLM (OM size plus a little more) based on the 2 very impressive CLMs I played at SBAIC. I really have no idea what the specs will be, though I do know I will incorporate a sound port, as I found them very effective on those two guitars.
Here are the 2 guitars from SBAIC to kick off the thread.
