We love this one. A controlled, balanced, and articulate voice paired with a wider nut for fingerstyle play and some ergonomic features to maximize player comfort. Our 2010 Grand Concert Minstrel from Gerald Sheppard is hands down a gorgeous guitar on every level. Amazon Rosewood body with Caucasian Spruce on top, dual arm and rib bevels (plus a bevelled cutaway), and the aforementioned 1 13/16” nut all come together in an easy-playing, expressive package. There’s also a soundport! And Fossilized Walrus Ivory nut & saddle. Gerald built this as a deep body variation on his standard GC, and the added depth gives a darkness and power to the bottom end that we especially enjoy in dropped tunings.

Here's a beautiful Gerald Sheppard guitar that is old enough to be mature. The Caucasian Spruce is fully awake and offers the player a wonderful sound palette.
Gerald nails it with lushness, clarity, and poise on this 2010 Grand Concert Mistral. I love the voicing for fingerstyle, especially in D tunings. Combined with the bevels, cutaway, and K&K pickup, and you’ve got a flattop for every situation.
