2007 Doerr Solace Select - Jumbo Acoustic Guitar
Tom Doerr is one of the rising stars in the custom guitar world. He's made his name completely with his tone which is magical. There's a bit of Ryan and Traugott to the voice but also a lot of Tom Doerr. What we like about Tom is he's very grounded and simply searching for ultimate tone and playability. He also has a philosophy of keeping his prices within reach of players which is why you get so much for your money. This Solace Select is designed with an extended top bevel to create a larger body that drives a smaller top creating the unique Solace Select sound. The body is also Wedge Shaped for additional comfort. This one has gorgeous 'Mare's Tail' Brazilian Rosewood and a premium Carpathian Spruce top tied together with gorgeous Macassar Ebony. A rare preowned Tom Doerr guitar.

Player Reviews:
"Tom Doerr is creating modern fingerstyle guitars of the highest caliber. The Mare's Tail Brazilian and silky Carpathian top are superb examples of great tonewoods. The voice is utterly gorgeous, deep, full bass, crisp trebles with weight to them, balance and clarity to spare. The Wedge Body and top Bevel make this extremely easy to hold and I think the Solace Select design is one that will appeal to many players seeking comfort without comprimising on tone one bit..." - Paul Heumiller
"This reminds me a lot of my old Ryan Nightingale. It has a big sound, but an extremely balanced frequency response for such a big guitar. Maybe it's because the top is the size of a Grand Concert while the body has the depth and size of a jumbo. I've only seen wood like this on Traugott guitars." - Al Petteway
