![]() ![]() One of the great parts of our job here at The North American Guitar is working alongside our luthiers and spec'ing out jawdropping guitars (it's a hard job but someones got to do it) and doing this with superstar luthier Jason Kostal is not only incredibly exciting but a lot of fun. The thing we have always admired about Jason from the first moment we started working alongside him back in 2010 was his drive and dedication for perfection in his instruments. His passion for his craft and ability to create guitars that move the world is nothing short of superhuman! Every single instrument built by Jason starts with a vision; a tonal concept of where the guitar is going to go and what it is going to be 'great' at...and this all starts with the woods...which is where the fun begins! Jason (being Jason) has one of the most outstanding wood collections in the world, so the sky is the limit when searching for 'that tone' in your head. Here is Jason to tell us what we have coming into The North American Guitar in 2019! ENJOY... Link: Video Kostal Jumbo Cutaway - Figured Honduran Mahogany / German Spruce - £17,750 ![]() We just love a good Mahogany guitar here at TNAG and we especially love a jumbo! Put them together and add into the mix a superstar luthier like Jason and undoubtedly going to be a winner! So it with great pleasure we can announce a TNAG exclusive, the first ever Kostal Jumbo in Mahogany and German Spruce. Set to be a cannon!
Kostal MDW Amazon Rosewood & German Spruce - £16,950 ![]() The Kostal MDW has become a best selling model for Jason and this Amazon Rosewood & German Spruce model is going to be something very special indeed! Currently being built and will arrive with us in 2018.
Kostal OMC Master Grade Koa & German Spruce - £18,950 ![]() This is an utterly stunning OM in Master Grade Koa and German Spruce from Jason Kostal of Kostal Guitars. Jason loves building OM due to their versatility and dynamic range and we expect this one to be rather breathtaking.

Jumbo? What does this mean? I see no body measurements.

Is it even legal to sell new guitars in Amazon rosewood? Hasn’t there been a ban for more than a decade?

Yep, I've asked Jason for some photos of the Amazon Rosewood. He said he'd send them when he's back in his workshop. :-)
