History

This model is a Flamed Maple WPC Jumbo. We built this guitar in 2005 along side another guitar for a customer who wanted a guitar that had a lot of artistic value as well as great sound. It is one of the more detailed guitars as far as Inlay and Purfling goes. Right now it is set up with D'Addario Bluegrass Strings. It is in excellent condition with no scratches, dings or flaws. It is really hard to describe just how good the flamed maple back and sides look and I hope that the pictures can do justice. I used the last set of back and sides from this particular wood and probably will not do another for a while. It plays and sounds great!
