We’re proud to offer another 000 from Newport, New Hampshire luthier Alan Carruth, this time showcasing a beautiful set of Brazilian Rosewood for the three piece back and a tight-grained Adirondack Spruce top. With the combination of the former’s richness, the latter’s projection, and this instrument’s 12-fret neck, Carruth managed to coax out a voice that is at once intimate and vocal, perfect for fingerstyle. Adorned with Alan’s exquisite Celtic Knot inlays across the fretboard and rosette (and of course his trademark owl on the headstock), this 000-12 Fret is an excellent choice for fingerstylists of any persuasion, and perhaps a Celtic player will feel most at home with these vibrant and tasteful appointments.

The bass notes ring with a surprising clarity and are complemented by equally present trebles, and in the past 14 years this Carruth has opened up into a sweet and balanced creature. Ready for the stage as well as the studio, this Carruth comes with a K&K Pure Mini transducer pickup and a Calton flight case.

Perfectly balanced for fingerstyle, this instrument thrives in lowered tunings and is set up smooth as butter.
I love the design of this guitar. The tone is focused and pure and with the K&K pickup already installed, it's ready for the stage. It sounds great acoustically and when plugged in and it's easy to play.
