The standard models are hand built with high quality solid tonewoods throughout. Both the Orchestra and Slope Shoulder Dreadnought models are classic designs – versatile, good looking and fantastic all-round performers.
Currently there is a choice of three classic body shapes, the Parlour (00 size), Orchestra (OM size) and Slope Shoulder (Dreadnought). In the Standard trim, simple aesthetics show off the top quality tonewoods used.
The torrefied Sitka Spruce soundboard (Cedar for the Parlour) is accompanied by a choice of genuine Honduras Mahogany or Indian Rosewood back & sides and 4 neck profiles. Torrefied Spruce bracing and Honduras Mahogany one-piece necks and internal components create a lightweight and resonant build. Strap buttons are fitted and an L.R.Baggs Hifi pickup is offered as an optional extra to make the instrument stage ready, but if you prefer to source your own the ‘NoJak’ endpin is easy to remove and means you will not have to drill a hole in your new guitar. At only £1,695 these are some of the best value hand-built guitars around.
