Dream Guitars is proud to announce our latest partnership! This time with Kevin Caton of Caton Guitars. And to celebrate the occasion, we commissioned his Sullivan model with a multiscale fretboard, Madagascar Rosewood, Italian Spruce, and Kevin’s innovative “Bevel Port” in the upper bout. And to boot, a Ryan-style arm bevel on top. The rosette and segmented back strip come in a custom design of Ebony, Bloodwood, and Buckeye Burl.
With a 3/4” spread, the multiscale fingerboard allows for added sonority and intonation while maintaining a natural and familiar play feel in the left hand; we found this Caton Sullivan takes to Open G particularly sweetly. Thus, this is a fantastic guitar for the fingerstylist who wants to dip into alternate tuning territory, but which holds up well under a flatpick in Standard as well. This is the first guitar we’ve taken on from Kevin, and we’re already impressed.

This is our first guitar from Kevin and it is wonderful. Full sounding with great low midrange and beauty. Playability is excellent and I really love the soundport design. It’s a very creative take on the side port, and gives a player just enough of a monitor to make playing more fun and responsive. | Scale Length | 25 in - 25.75 in |
