In our shop of fingerstyle guitars, this 2012 Kolaya (Brad Daniels) MJ fits perfectly. With its 16" lower bout and Cocobolo back and sides, this guitar exhibits deep, rolling bass notes, themselves crisp and well-defined. Fleshed out with a balanced middle register and trebles with a juicy brand of clarity, thanks to the White Spruce top, this MJ is the envy of less well-balanced guitars everywhere.
Fingerstyle arrangements are lush and complex, each string present and articulate--and dropped down to DADGAD and beyond, this Kolaya MJ remains fresh and projective. The C profile neck is gracefully contoured and feels instantly familiar in your left hand, and Daniels' contemporary aesthetic lends this guitar a unique, understated sense of style.
I took this baby all the way down to CGCGAD and it still rang out nice and clear! The woods are fabulous and come together nicely under Brad's knack of voicing a guitar for maximum response and dynamic range. An excellent choice for any guitarist, but fingerstylists in particular. 
This is a really nicely-balanced guitar. It's got the perfect tone for fingerstyle playing but would work well for flatpicking too. - Accessories
