New Berkowitz F6-CW Limited Dream Series Brazilian/German
This is the second Dream Series Limited Edition that we commissioned from David Berkowitz. This time around we added a Manzer Wedge to his F6-C model with old growth Brazilian Rosewood and German Spruce top. In addition there is a venetian cutaway, side soundport and bound headstock and fingerboard. Lastly it is wrapped in a Karura Sentinal Case of white and blue.
But what you won’t see in the pictures is the rich, sensous voice of this guitar. The wedge makes for superb balance and the trebles swell off the soundboard while rich overtones develop. This is a guitar that produces a lot of sound with a light touch, but also welcomes more energy and has the headroom to keep giving. The wedge also makes it very comfortable and it plays with ease. Dream #2 available now!

If you could walk in here today and play this Berkowitz F-6 Concert Dream Series, it would sell itself. It’s that simple. You can read all about the stats and measurements, but you’d forget them all when you start playing. And you’d know that you’ve got something rare in your hands. This baby is why we’re in this business.

Berkowitz’s interest in building guitars came early, at the age of four, and was fostered by his discovery of the works of David Russell Young and Irving Sloane, both of whom wrote the early modern treatises on guitar making in the 1970s.
In 1985, Berkowitz attended the Roberto-Venn School of Lutherie. Berkowitz continued his lutherie education on his own, attending seminars at the American School of Lutherie, and most recently with Master Luthier Ervin Somogyi.
Berkowitz began building professionally in 1993 and continues to build fine acoustic guitars, baritones, and acoustic basses for the professional musician. Berkowitz is a member of the Guild of American Luthiers and ASIA – The Association of Stringed Instrument Artisans.
I've long enjoyed David Berkowitz's instruments. Being a Baritone player myself, I'm attracted to David's clear, present voice of his instruments. He is a true student of the craft always seeking knowledge and employing new ideas. In recent years his voicing has been inspired by the teachings of Ervin Somogyi and it has greatly enhanced the energy and tone of David's guitars. From Concert to Baritone there is a Berkowitz for all players.
