Brazilian ebony
OM-style grand concert
Stark-looking, uniform, magnificently hard, black-brown Brazilian ebony (Swartzia tomentosa) lends a glassy clarity to a familiar guitar configuration; wider spacing at bridge is ideal for larger hands. Brazilian Ebony is just as dense as African Ebony and has similar working properties with less of a tendency to split. Although not a true Ebony, it shares many of the same desirable attributes.

wrc303 East Indian rosewood
14-fret "Dreadnaught-template" jumbo
Master-grade East-Indian rosewood, picture-perfect in every respect, formalizes my re-creation of this pre-war Dreadnaught -style guitar. I've designed it to, match the original's huge, open, deep-voice which made the recipe so popular over the decades. My take on this tradition varies in several respects, such as a reduction in the massive bracing of the original design and in respect to the use of paper-white Norwegian broadleaf curly maple bindings that replace the celluloid originals. Special also is the use of Sub-alpine Fir for the soundboard, a rare but only recently discovered coniferous softwood soundboard species with outstanding ATR (Ability to Resonate) numbers. I'm particularly proud of the response and appearance of this guitar!
