John Slobod and his Circa Guitars have become a hot commodity in the guitar world. Slews of pro players have purchased Circa guitars including our own Al Petteway, Steve Baughman, Tony McManus, Ed Dodson and many others. These players are the best in the world and they choose guitars for tone, playability, reliability and quality, in that order. John Slobod has all of that in every guitar. This ravishing D-42 Sunburst is a stunner. The abalone really shines against the deep, dark burst. The top is old Engelmann Spruce and while not a bluegrass cannon, Engelmann gives this box a wonderful warm strumming voice and a richness that will suit singer-songwriters, accompanists and fingerpickers perfectly.
This Circa is absolutely gorgeous and crafted from the finest woods. This Dread, with it's Engelmann top, has a beautiful voice that is well suited for accompanying vocals, fingerstyle or flatpicking Old Time style. This one was not built to be a bluegrass beast, but rather a refined and elegant instrument with it's own character and charm. It is simply sublime. 
You just can't find a better builder of Dreadnought guitars. This one has all of the balance and punch that you would want without ever getting muddy. I've played a lot of dreadnought in the shop and my favorites have been the Circas. This one is no exception. | Scale Length | 25.4 in |
