The Select Series currently comprises two guitars, an Orchestra and a Slope Shoulder, in our favourite specs. Both guitars have Honduras Mahogany back and sides and feature ivory celluloid binding and herringbone detail. The ebony fretboards feature diamond abalone inlays and are bound to match the body. Both necks are carved to our custom Asymmetric profile to ensure comfort in every playing position.
The Slope Shoulder has a torrefied Sitka Spruce top with a classic sunburst finish and with it’s good looks and big voice it’s a fantastic guitar to take to the stage. As usual an LR Baggs Hifi pickup can be fitted on request.
The Orchestra upgrades the top to Adirondack Spruce, also torrefied, which adds clarity and articulation to its voice, making it a perfect all-rounder.
