Tasmanian Blackwood B&S,  9-fans  Hauser Braced Cedar top. African Padauk bindings, Exclusive handmade Luxury Marquetry,650mm Cutaway, Buffalo horn saddle and nut. Ebony fingerboard,  Ebony bridge. Handmade Embossed Leather case included ! CUTAWAY. GORGEOUS ! I discovered this amazingly beautiful and noble tonewood from Southern Australia in mid 2010. Earlier the same year I had my first encounter with another Tasmanian species, Tiger Myrtle, and I was blown away. Well, apparently Tasmania is full of great surprises for me! The looks and sound of this beauty are immense. As soon as lacquering was finished and the instrument was polished, a stunning metallic like reflection appeared that makes her simply irresistible. It is as if the wood captured the surrounding light, amplified it and reflected it back adding a myriad spectacular reflections. This has only happened three or four times since I build guitars (I built over 1,000 to date). In other words, it is not a feature that can be requested on custom order. Everything looks the same when you look at the wood in its natural state but something (I presume it is the way the wood fibers are oriented) changes the overall appearance when the instrument is finished. Coupling every single wood for the construction was the dream of any luthier. I matched the deep honey with black figure of the back and sides with a fabulous Western Redcedar top. I bonded the parts using the finest handmade marquetry and African Padauk bindings.  The sound in the is phenomenal. The amazing power of the bass comes out gloriously and so do the crystal clear notes. She's tremendously expressive and this can be noted in the fast arpeggio sequence in Asturias where the bass line carries the main melody with the thumb while the m and i finger carry the counterpoint on the first and second strings. As I play, I feel the instrument vibrate fully and the response is fast and powerful.  She is a TRUE QUEEN !!   USD 2,904 Order this exact instrument clicking below DHL Shipping: USA 184 USD, Europe 223 USD, Asia 278 USD   LIMITED EDITION  SERIES .
