2004 Moll Quat-Not-Troport Flamed Maple/Adirondack
Simply Stunning Custom Quat-Not-Troport Archtop by Bill Moll. This very special guitar is one of a kind and is based on John Monteleone’s Quattroport design. Outstanding workmanship and incredible tone that has attributes of a Fine Archtop and Flattop and is equally at home playing straight ahead Jazz or Fingerstyle Blues. Excellent volume and clarity thanks to the three extra sound ports on the bass side of the body and the stunningly flamed Bigleaf Maple back and sides and Adirondack Spruce top. There is also a Piezo pickup built in. The tailpiece, fingerboard and pickguard are each crafted from figured Macassar Ebony in stunning detail. Superbly playable, this instrument is an attention-getter.

Our craft lies at the intersection of creativity, and a specific application of acoustical physics. An intuitive mixture of art, science, and ingenuity that creates visual, as well as audible music. I believe that an instrument should be built to perform at a superior level acoustically, before any electronics are considered, and we individually build each of our instruments with that objective. My years in the violin business gave me a singularly unique perspective in this area of acoustics, and I apply many violin making techniques to the building of fine archtop guitars.
Bill Moll is one of the premier luthiers of our time. Known for stunning Archtops and Flattop guitars. Several of Bill's guitars that I've played are among my personal favorites, they are extremely responsive, lively and exquisitely crafted.
