Attachment 71571HeAttachment 71568I’ll be doing two shows this spring: Artison guitar show and La Conner. Hope to see you there!

This is the wood that will be used for the top of number 100 Free Spirit model. Guess what the species of this American wood is? ��

Default Sound hole: YES
You can feel the sound coming out of the uniquely placed sound hole. There is nothing traditional about the features of this guitar. BE DIFFERENT!
