2003 Ribbecke Thinline, Mahogany/Maple
We just took on a good looker today, friends. This Thinline from Tom Ribbecke hails from 2003, features a semi-hollow Mahogany body and Figured Maple top, Mahogany neck plus wide nut, and a Humbucker-Single-Coil-Humbucker pickup arrangement. Weighing in about eight pounds, this Ribbecke has some heft to it, and some sweet sustain as a result. If you’re looking for a wider-spec’d fingerboard, look no further! Comes in a Road Runner gig bag.

2003 Ribbecke Testadura, Maple & Rosewood/Sitka Spruce
Tom Ribbecke’s thinline Testadura model is designed with variety and dynamism in mind, and is equally at home with both Jazz and Rock. This beauty from 2003 boasts Indian Rosewood sides paired with a Bigleaf Maple back and carved Sitka Spruce top, and Tom Holmes PAF humbuckers. In both the body and neck Tom installed carbon graphite for stability and improved stiffness-to-weight ratio. The setup is butter smooth on this one, it really plays itself.

2018 Tim Frick Oriole 16″ Archtop, Bigleaf Maple/Sitka Spruce
A first for us here at Dream Guitars—this is a 2018 Tim Frick Oriole 16″ Archtop, and it’s an absolute stunner. Built with Sitka Spruce over Bigleaf Maple, this hand-carved Jazz box is light, alive, and resonant in a way that immediately grabs your attention. Tim’s work is known for its elegance, and this Oriole delivers in every detail.
From the Lollar Johnny Smith-style humbucker to the beveled soundport, this guitar is full of thoughtful design choices that elevate both tone and experience. The subtle burst finish brings out the natural beauty of the woods—especially the figure in the Maple—and the overall visual aesthetic is one of quiet sophistication.
Unplugged, it’s articulate and sweet, with a dry, woody tone perfect for intimate sessions. Plugged in, it opens up into something truly otherworldly—rich, expressive, and endlessly musical.
This is a builder to watch and a guitar that speaks volumes about where modern archtop lutherie is headed.

Brand New TreeHouse Blue Ember, Maple/Adirondack Spruce
A first for us here at the shop from Zach Lefebvre, a brand new TreeHouse Blue Ember. It’s rare to find such unique instruments, where form certainly follows function so well. A whole lot of tone, and even more character. The back and sides’ hue harkens back to custom Stratocasters of the late 50s and early 60s, with an incredibly visually pleasing stain on top. The single coil tone combined with its acoustic resonance makes for an intriguing and fantastic musical experience. Maple for the back and sides, Adirondack Spruce on top.

2005 Kim Walker Archtop, Curly Maple/Sitka Spruce
Here we have a rare piece from Kim Walker. This is a 2005 Archtop. If you know of Kim Walker, you know he is synonymous with absolute excellence and is quite unparalleled in the guitar world. It’s no surprise to us that this example from Kim, albeit uncommon, is just as incredible as his renowned flattop work. Seymour Duncan humbucker, floating pickguard, and all the features you expect from a top-tier archtop are delivered here by the one and only Kim Walker. Curly Maple back and sides, Sitka Spruce top. Truly superlative to what you know and love about hollowbody guitars.

Brand New Beauregard MB, Bigleaf Maple/Spruce
A smooth operator from tuners to tail. This brand new MB model from Mario Beauregard is our first new build in a while, and it’s so good to be working together! The MB is a curvaceous, effortless, gorgeous approach to modern electric guitarbuilding, from the über curved sides to the carved Maple back and Spruce top, minimalist F holes, and Duneland Labs humbucker. Gold EVO frets ensure the setup will be smooth and clear for a long time to come; weighing under six pounds, you hardly tell it’s there. The back and sdies are carved from solid master grade Bigleaf Maple, and blends perfectly with the solid Spruce top and Maple neck thanks to a light amber honeyed finish. The pickup features a custom hammered cover that adds excitement to the svelte aesthetics, here mated with an Ebony pickguard/finger rest with included volume and tone knobs underneath.

2015 Alembic Further FLG6, Purpleheart/Buckeye
Further, indeed. The team at Alembic has been pushing the envelope for years, and that sterling reputation for innovation has led to a community of ardent fans of both basses and electrics. We recently landed one of their Further models from 2015, and we get what all the fuss is about: this is a well-oiled machine capable of handling, well, anything. Purpleheart body with Buckeye top and back laminates; through neck; chrome hardware; and heaps of electronics. The team outfitted this one with volume, three pickup selectors, three filters, effects loop, effects loop bypass, LED position markers—the works. Whew! The through neck is a laminate of Flame Maple, Purpleheart, and Cherry, and is such a strikingly gorgeous number with silky play feel to boot. The fit and finish is flawless from tuners to tail, and we find ourselves struggling to put it down for any real length of time. Weighs in at eight pounds for a solid heft that won’t bow your shoulders: the Alembic Further is the complete package.

2015 Artinger Convertible, All-Koa
Pop the top and ride, ride, ride. Here’s a sweet piece of lutherie from the one and only Matt Artinger—the 2015 double Convertible bedecked with Flamed Koa hollow body and Artinger Electric City pickups. The twin F holes are both “convertible” with their removable covers, coil tap for single coil crunch at the touch of a knob, and a tight, tight Flamed Mahogany neck to boot.
The tone of these Electric City humbuckers is fat, juicy, and rich. It’s so much fun to play with this powerhouse! More than dynamic enough to fit right in for Jazz, Blues, Rock, you name it. Additionally, Matt inlaid a series of vines along the fretboard and headplate for a final touch of beauty and elegance on this Artinger Convertible.Other keywords: cedar creek, electric guitar, hollowbody, hollow-body, gotoh
