1967 Guild Bluesbird M-75 Mahogany/Spruce

The big single coil pickups offer a screamin’ tone for blues or a clean punch for Jazz and other styles. This vintage Guild is in great shape, with restoration work performed by Gilbert Diaz one of Guild’s three amigos.

A cool, balanced, articulate voice that the player can mold howsoever they choose, with focused trebles, round midrange, and expansive bass regiser. An exquisite modern fingerstyle instrument.

There’s even a palm bevel in lieu of a cutaway.

Brand New Halland 000-H, Ebony/Swiss Moonspruce
Our latest build with Gage Halland has finally landed—and we don’t want it to leave. Gage’s 000-H body has fantastic power, clarity, and dynamic range without being a big guitar, and his fit and finish is flawless throughout with a gorgeous aesthetic. We spec’d this out with Reserve Ebony back and sides with a Swiss Moonspruce top, arm bevel and palm bevel in lieu of a cutaway, and Gage’s glass-smooth setup. It essentially plays itself. The voice mixes up great across the registers, with crisp note separation and a wide dynamic range. If there’s a bad note in this fretboard, we haven’t heard it yet.

Brand New Halland DC-H, Wenge/Moonspruce
Here’s a custom client build that we wish we’d commissioned for ourselves to keep! We worked with Gage Halland to spec out this DC-H to handle a range of tunings (thanks, multiscale) with the same powerful attack and crisp definition (thanks, Wenge & Moonspruce). Twin arm and rib bevels for creature comfort, plus the ubiquitous florentine cutaway. Brand new, and already such a monster. The voice is wide, wide open.

Brand New Halland DC-H, Wenge/Sitka Spruce
Halland brings it home again with his latest DC-H. We commissioned this beauty with Wenge back and sides and a Sitka Spruce top, plus Gage’s lambs tongue-appointed arm and rib bevels immediately after the last one came to us (and promptly sold before we could hardly list the darned thing). Here we find exquisite note definition and sustain, letting the voice simultaneously fire right out of the soundhole and also linger around the player with mellifluous overtones. It’s got gears, essentially. We love putting this one through its paces in C tunings (even managed to pull a low B out for a bit!), right on up to Standard pitch.
Halland’s voice is representative of the modern guitar sound: clean, precise, powerful, and dynamic. We love Gage’s sense of line and curve with his builds; the aesthetics at play here are reminiscent of his apprenticeship with famed Michael Greenfield, but very much in his own style.Other keywords: lutherie, luthier, guitarbuilding, fingerstyle, holland guitars, 2020, gotoh, hoffee
