Brand New Galloup G.2C, CITES Cleared Brazilian Rosewood/Italian Spruce
***Update! We’ve secured CITES paperwork for the Brazilian Rosewood on this beauty, which means we can ship this BRW Galloup internationally!***
Bryan Galloup takes the science of lutherie seriously: and the experiment proves sweetly successful. This G.2C, Bryan’s grand auditorium body here with a cutaway, has an incredible dynamic range, lots of gears, and a surgically crisp projection and note separation. A finer fingerstyle guitar, you’ll be hard pressed to find. Straight-grained Brazilian Rosewood back and sides with Italian Spruce on top and an intricate series of inlays around the rosette, along the back, and between the tuner posts really brings together a modern, geometric aesthetic.
It’s hard to put this guitar down. Once we had the G.2C in our hands, we really just lost track of time. This Galloup will make some enemies when you bring it home; your other guitars will be collecting dust.Other keywords: lutherie, luthier, guitarbuilding, guitar science, dream team, fingerstyle, fingerpicking, contemporary guitar, resonant, exclusive

Brand New Galloup G.2C, Wenge/Italian Spruce
G.2C powerhouse! Bryan Galloup’s grand auditorium strikes a well-honed balance between power and clarity, dynamism and definition. It’s an incredible guitar, dressed to the nines in straight-grained Wenge and Italian Spruce and some really impressive inlays along the headstock, rosette, and back. Do we love this guitar? Yes, yes we do. It’s a testament to Bryan’s tuning technologies that this guitar has such a finely honed voice, and plays so well in so many different settings. We loved taking this one into C tunings just as much as Standard. If there’s a bad note on this G.2C, we haven’t found it yet.

Brand New Galloup G.4, Brazilian Rosewood/German Spruce
We’re exceedingly fortunate to be able to work with some of the greatest luthiers alive today, among them Bryan Galloup. We just took in this brand new G.4 from Bryan after the 2019 Swannanoa Gathering Guitar Week, and frankly we feel hard pressed to let this one go. Brick-red Brazilian Rosewood back and sides are paired with a German Spruce top and 12-fret neck in a smaller package that lends extra sweetness to the trebles. This Galloup is an excellent fingestyle instrument, and plays as easily as breathing. The bass register is equal parts warmth and definition, which really rounds out the overall voice. Bryan stepped up his game by stepping the wings of the bridge (see photos for a closeup!) and inlaying the back with long geometric patterns, as well as around the soundhole. This work of functional art comes wrapped up in a custom Hoffee flight case.

2012 Galloup Borealis, Indian/Sitka
Recipe for a great guitar: 1) choose classic tonewoods, 2) dial in the setup for slick playability, and 3) get Bryan Galloup to build it. Our 2012 Borealis is a beast with appointments that stand out from the crowd, and projection to level doors. Indian Rosewood back and sides, Sitka Spruce top, Laskin-style arm bevel, cutaway, and the piéce de resistance: wine glass inlays across the fretboard extension. We’d like to think it’s a Malbec to match the lively and spicy tone.
As we mentioned, the setup has that slick quality to it that guarantees effortless playability, in standard tuning and beyond. 25 1/2 inch scale gives a smidgeon extra bite to the bass, and the 1 3/4 inch nut feels right at home.
When a guitar plays this well, and sings this sweetly, it’s difficult to put it down. Be prepared to annoy friends and family when you start making excuses to slip away and pick up this Galloup Borealis again. Just one more tune, honest!

Galloup Northernlights Maple/Sitka
This is a stunning Galloup Northern Lights crafted from Flamed Maple and Bearclaw Sitka Spruce. This Galloup guitar is also bound in Flamed Maple for a elegant appeal. Brian designed his Northern Lights for recording and it does indeed have great balance and clarity, but the slightly larger body also makes this a versatile beauty. It strums and fingerpicks equally well and would make a great stage guitar with it’s awesome Flamed Maple!

1973 Gemza Concert Indian/Spruce
Displaced from Hungary by World War II, Bela Gemza came to the U.S. in the late 1940s and strived to make great, original guitars and lutes from the finest materials in the basement of his modest home. Time has shown that he succeeded.
This wonderful Gemza guitar dates from what many believe was Bela’s “Golden period” of craftsmanship in 1973. It is an especially beautiful instrument thanks to the Indian Rosewood back and sides and Spruce top ornamented with beautiful Maple binding. The playability and tone of this instrument is exquisite. Gemza guitars project beautifully and this one offers a complete tone which has gained authority over time, like a fine aged red wine.

A first for us here at Dream Guitars, this 2020 RL15.5 by Ryan Gerber is decked out in incredible Cocobolo and Moonspruce.

Tonally, this guitar has a lot to offer, with rich overtones and a saturation of sound unique to this instrument—low mid growls and lush trebles.

New Greg German Agave Ziricote/Adirondack (Red)
Caramel-sweet and firecracker hot, this brand-new 2015 German Agave has got a voice to strike other guitars dumb. Greg German‘s too kind: he’s given us an enormous amount of tone, and some sweet appointments, for a great deal. Complete with a soundport, gold Gotoh 510s, interlocking fretboard inlays and rosette, Venetian Cutaway, the Agave has more options than you can shake a pick at. That said, wait until you actually have the instrument in your hands–the setup is glass-smooth, and the voice is charged and energetic. Trebles which are bright and talkative, a middle register with lots of power that speaks for itself, and a tight, controlled low-end give the Agave a punchy flavor more commonly found in smaller-bodied guitars–but with all the volume and sustain traditionally found in Grand Concerts or Dreadnoughts.

New Greg German Agave Bolivian/Bearclaw Sitka
Greg German is making exquisite guitars. This Agave model is proof. The level of detail and beauty is off the charts, yet they remain sublime. The purflings and inlays are all elegant and truly add to the aesthetic of the instrument. But it’s the tonal character we love, clarity and beauty are in every note on the fingerboard. The Bolivian Rosewood(aka Pau Ferro) and Figured Sitka top blend perfectly to produce pure music. The playability is superb and accurate. This is a player’s instrument that is also a gentleman’s guitar.

New German Belladonna Bolivian Rswd/Sitka
Greg German has a background as a highly skilled Illustrator, Animator and luthier with Edward Victor Dick. This experience allows him to create and execute details that most Luthiers wouldn’t dare to attempt. This Belladonna, multiscale, steel string is breathtaking in subtle ways. There are extensive inlays on the headstock, fingerboard, soundport and rosette, but all are fine and wooden for an elegant effect. The wild Bolivian Rosewood back and Silky Sitka top give this asymmetrical multiscale a bright, clear tone with just a hint of dark under current. The combination of 25.4 scale on the bass string and the short 24.75 top string offer great intonation, easy and even tension and enhance this guitars ability to handle any tuning you want to use from Standard to low C. What a treat to have this guitar to begin our relationship with Greg German.

1984 Gibson Les Paul Custom, Kahler Tremolo/Wine Red Finish
From 1984, here’s a Gibson Custom Les Paul dressed in a rich Wine Red finish, with block fret markers and the iconic Gibson Custom headstock inlay. At first glance, it’s everything you’d expect from a classic Les Paul — but look closer, and you’ll find something unexpected: a legendary Kahler tremolo system at the bridge.
Outfitted with a locking nut and fine tuners, this setup lets you dive-bomb and shred like you’re playing a Jackson Dinky, while still enjoying the unmistakable sustain and heft of a true Les Paul Custom.
The tuners are another unique touch — a collaboration between Gibson and Schaller. These speed tuners eliminate the need for a peg winder during string changes, adding a touch of practicality to the performance-minded build.
Whether you’re into classic rock, heavy metal, or anything in between, this guitar delivers. A perfect fit for passionate collectors and shred-heads alike — this one’s calling your name.
