This Traugott R Cutaway has opened up handsomely since 2013–and we suspect it was already a showstopper at day one. Wide dynamic range, a very textured voice that also manages to remain crisp and clear. A fingerstylist’s dream. The German Spruce top has been dressed up with a sparkling Abalone top border and rosette, plus BRW bridge, and the back and sides come from one of Jeff’s brick-red and straight grain sets of Brazilian Rosewood.

When I coach young guitar makers, Jeff Traugott's name often comes up as an example of how to create a musical instrument players will long for. Tone is what it's all about, and Jeff is admired for his rich, full tone that so many pro musicians have chosen as their voice. This guitar embodies all of the best Jeff has given to the guitar world. 
The voice is liquid. Strong when you need it, clear when you need it, fills all the gaps in the room. The midrange is boosted with a sweet, blooming effect that makes for a sumptuously detailed response. | Scale Length | 25.4 in |
