Our latest instrument from Noemi of Italy is an astounding example of contemporary lutherie, and that starts with the materials themselves. The back and sides are a striking set of Ebony, and Noemi paired that with a creamy Italian Spruce set for the top. The body is bound in Ebony, and Noemi’s multifaceted pickguard (here in Buckeye) is integrated into the upper bout, fretboard extension, and down onto typical pickguard territory. The body itself has been built with a slight wedge shape, making the bass side slimmer than the treble, which helps to keep this guitar an effortless player.
The Wedge is voiced for excellent note definition and separation between the strings. We found it a perfect candidate for fingerstyle playing where articulation and clarity are of the utmost importance. The trebles are, at their core, clean and smooth. In fact, there’s nothing we can really point to about this guitar that doesn’t come off as elegant and organic. Noemi’s The Wedge plays without effort, and that voice is pure glass.

We are very proud to offer this first of the Wedge model from Noemi. It was born out of some ideas that we had here at Dream Guitars, and Noemi fearlessly charged ahead to create this beautiful work of art. The voice is clear and resonant, both accurate and beautiful. The integrated pick guard is unique and beautiful and showcases her Italian style. | Scale Length | 25.4 in |
