We use quality tonewoods and high-tech machinery to craft our instruments.  We only use solid wood and carefully matched glue joints.  Our fretwork is second to none, and each component is adjusted and fitted for a perfect match.

This is a modern version of our 59 Carved Top.  It’s thinner and lighter with a belly cut and a shaped / blended heel area that is more comfortable to play and allows better access to the higher frets.
