Brook Guitars - Custom Lamorna
I recently visited the Brook Guitars workshop to pick my new custom Lamorna which has been on order for some 10 months or so.
It has a Adirondack top, English walnut back and sides, mahogany neck and is short scale. Here are some photos:        Here it is with my other two Brooks. From left to right - Torridge, Lamorna and Lyn.   Suffice to say I'm very pleased with the outcome

Beautiful wood. I own a Custom Froggy Bottom with English Walnut B&S. I really like it. You have some gorgeous guitars!

Beautiful line up there. I'm a fan of English walnut, it's such a nice option to American walnut. But I'm pleased we could put some North American species on your guitar--the Adi top is lovely!

Absolutely breathtaking! Clean, simple, elegant, but very classy at the same time! Quite a conquest!

The Lamorna’s walnut back and sides are spectacular, congrats! What are the back and sides of your Lyn and Torridge 00’s based on the differences/contrast in the pictures you shared? That lineup looks so cool.
