This
Macassar Ebony babe will simply make you speechless ! She's absolutely
gorgeous and everything about her talks of the highest cae in detail, artistry
and a superb sound that will make you want to play her for hours at a time.
The spectacular cut of Macassar ebony was shipped from Sri Lanka, It matched
perfectly with a beautiful Redwood set I was keeping for a special project.
O made her a lattice to add the extra punch and edge to the sound and added
electronics to make her complete for " in the road" use. Decorating her
was part of the thrill. A gorgeous Russian rosette and spectacular marquetry
to enhance her lines.

The lattice is a concept based on the A frame of grand pianos. The back and sides are kept rigid by means of a sturdy A shaped frame and the top is thinned as much as possible to allow the top to vibrate generously. As you see from the picture above, the thinned area is approximately 1.2 mm thick (VS 2-2.5 in the standard thinning techniques). Lattice delivers a lot of volume (approximately 21 dbs more) and wonderfully clear trebles.
Radiused or flat fingerboard?
The hand embossed leather case
is a work of art on its own right. Built by one of a handful of very talented
leather embossers in Latin America.
640mm or 650 mm?
