New Applegate Guitars Dream Series SJ - Small Jumbo Acoustic Guitar

Here we have an absolutely stunning Dream Series guitar from our friend, Brian Applegate. Brian has truly arrived as a world class luthier and this is a wonderful example of his highly refined sensibilities. This particular set of Brazilian Rosewood and Euro-Spruce have combined to produce a guitar that is stunningly lively and open. Add to that Brian's typically first-rate appointments (the graceful bevel, the intricate rosette...) and you have a work of art right there in your arms. Your jaw will drop when you hear how big this thing sounds. Caress it lightly with your fingers, stand back, and say "wow." We all did.

Dream Guitars Player's Review:
"This guitar is amazing, it moves a lot of air with a light touch. The sound is huge, warm, and open. The workmanship is stunning. Brian is raising the bar for beauty and craftsmenship. You will not be disappointed to have this baby in your collection." - Paul Heumiller

"One of the nicest of the Dream Series guitars, this Applegate is the cream of the crop with all of the extras that make it extremely collectible. It sounds incredible too. " - Al Petteway

"Gorgeous woods and appointments, lightly built, impeccably crafted, with a wonderful balance across the entire spectrum, and a BIG sound that just leaps off the top... this is another beautiful instrument from Brian. For my money, this is one of the best guitars available in this very reasonable price range. " - Al Schlimm
