Artists who play instruments by this builder: Steven Sills, Earl Klugh, Steven Seagal
This is one of the prettiest and best sounding Maingard guitars we've had the pleasure to offer our clients. The dramatic Brazilian Rosewood, bookmatched Brazilian Fingerboard, Brazilian Bridge, Green perflings, Armrest Bevel, Bird of Paradise Inlay and custom Pearl Diamond Side Markers, all make it special. The voice is incredible. Strummed chords shimmer and shine with brilliance but also deep body. Fingerstyle play reveals it's other side where it's capable of deep emotion and beauty. An extremely versatile and astonishing Maingard GC from Capetown, South Africa!

Player Reviews:
"This guitar inspires me, I love it. The voice is angelic and it does absolutely everything. It's beauty is easy to see in the pictures, but let me tell you that in person it really is something. All of the elements combine for a real honest beauty and elegance. Just fabulous." - Paul Heumiller
"This is a beautifully made guitar with a great balance for fingerstyle playing. The feel of the neck is very comfortable and the bevel makes it even more comfortable to play. One of the best guitars of its kind that you could own.
" - Al Petteway
