Stefan Sobell, Darrell Scott. Two of our favorite names, and strung together in the same breath makes for a powerful instrument. Enter the “Lumberjack” Model 1, built by Stefan for Darrell in 2019. Silky, dark Malaysian Blackwood back and sides with a Sitka Spruce top, Stefan’s trademark V neck profile, and a 25 5/8” scale length for crisp bass notes and explosive projection. The top is a step in a new direction for Stefan, lighter and more responsive, and we’re delighted to confirm it soaks up gentler fingerstyle work just as well as vigorous flatpicking. Additionally, Stefan outfitted this beautiful instrument with a Highlander pickup, Gotoh 510 Delta tuners, EVO frets, and the whole package comes wrapped up in an ivory Hiscox flight case.
A Sobell good enough for Darrell, it’s more than good enough for us.
