Default Razo #21--Cocobolo/Engelmann

While waiting for Razo 19 to show up, I thought I'd share some pics of Razo 21 that Jonathan built for the SBAIC. Although the guitar did not sell at SB, Jonathan tells me the guitar was sold upon his return home and is now on its way to some happy owner!

I had a chance to play this guitar at SB and although only 3 days old at the time, it was already exceptional with a very full sound and crisp bell-like trebles. If I wasn't taking ownership of #19, it would definitely have been a contender to come home with me. The overall design is simple and clean and the craftsmanship was exceptional.

Great work by Jonathan--I'm glad he's back in the game, and I look forward to seeing what he has in store for us in the future!

Beautiful guitar. Never had a chance to check out Jonathan's guitars in person but would love to have the chance. This one is a stunner. I think that the Engelmann Cocobolo combo would be pretty spectacular.

Best,
Jayne

This is a sweetie! My Coco/Engelman Gaffney MD is a killer. I bet this is as well.
