SOLD - 2007 Charis Acoustics SJ-F - SJ Acoustic Guitar

The Healdsburg Guitar Festival is the premiere trade show for the builders of high-end custom guitars. For this festival builders go all out to build eye (and ear) catching instruments that show their finest work. That is definitely true of the two Charis guitars we brought back from Healdsburg. This one is an SJ with very dramatic Brazilian Rosewood as the centerpiece along with a totally new Rosette design and laser cut fingerboard inlay. The tone is big and bold with classic richness from the proven combination of Brazilian Rosewood and German Spruce. Oh, and there is also an armrest and ribrest bevel, this one has it all...

Dream Guitars Player's Review:
"I hand selected this Charis guitar at the Healdsburg Guitar Festival. It immediately caught my attention with its beauty and stunning Brazilian Rosewood. I was also smitten with the laser cut rosette that is unlike anything I've seen before. But it was the first few notes that sold me on it. It's pure, sweet and bold. Bill's voice is stunning and original you owe it to yourself to play one of his guitars. I am thrilled to offer you this one fresh from Healdsburg..." - Paul Heumiller

"This is a gorgeous instrument the sound is warm and clear and the decorative appointments are very classy. A winner." - Al Petteway

Another Satisfied Dream Guitars Customer:
"Last night I wrote down all 42 solid wood acoustic guitars I have owned since 1982, what I liked and didn't, why I moved on, and any that I missed having. Next to the SJT I wrote one word: perfect. They will bury me with this one. It's not a guitar, it's a piano." - Satisfied Customer
