We’ve had several of luthier Dake Traphagen steel strings now and each has been inspiring as indicated by how fast they are flying out the door. This little figured Mahogany 00 is a real gem and has us all grinning from ear to ear! The set of Mahogany is extraordinary with a stunning figure and color and this wood lends a powerful body to the voice. Now for the top Dake serves up a perfect piece of Moon Spruce from Switzerland. This is very rare wood harvested at a precise phase of the moon to minimize the resins. It is felled with the aid of helicopters to minimize the impact of the fall. The Moon Spruce is audibly clear and resonant with power, headroom and beauty available for the asking.
