This guitar is a smooth operator. From famed luthier Bill Tippin, this 2005 Bravado custom Jumbo in German Spruce and Brazilian Rosewood boasts the pianistic articulation that Tippin guitars are known for, coupled with a loud presence when played with aggressive attack. The Bravado still projects well with a lighter Fingerstyle approach, thanks to a masterfully proportioned German Spruce top. As ever, Bill has set this guitar up perfectly, whether your are fingerpicking or strumming the action feels smooth and buttery.

One of the great outcomes of having this business for so many years is that I have gotten to meet many great builders and players, many of which I am proud to call my friends. Bill Tippin is one of those people. He is a great person and builder, I can tell he puts a lot of his soul in his work. His instruments just flat out sing, this one is particular is fantastic.
Similar to Tippin's Crescendo model, but bigger with more bass response and great volume. Great for anyone playing in dropped tunings as well.
