This is a fine German guitar from Joe Striebel, a great builder that we're glad to represent. The quilted mahogany sides and back are deep and stunning, the bear claw spruce top is a nice variation to the status quo. This is one of those instruments that does many things extremely well -- it's warm without giving up any sparkle, punchy yet sweet. The short scale feels great as well.

"This is the first Striebel we've seen with his armrest Bevel design, it makes it's extremely comfortable. The voice is excellent I feel like I can play all styles on this one." - Paul Heumiller
"I like the clear woody sound of this guitar and the high strings are sweet and rich. Nice for fingerstyle or flatpicking." - Al Petteway
"Gorgeous quilted mahogany sides and back, cool bear claw on the sitka top, great playability... this is an extremely comfortable guitar to hold and play. I particularly liked it for strumming or finger picking. The former yields a nice, sparkly jangle on the top end (with no harshness), the latter gives up very warm and cozy sounds that also invite the player to dig in a bit. " - Al Schlimm
