This amazing Custom Tippin Crescendo Multiscale was originally custom built for us by Master Luthier Bill Tippin. Old Growth Brazilian, Moon Spruce and a 25.5-26.25 multiscale were chosen to make this a super versatile guitar, this one can do it all! The multiscale insures that the Bass will never get weak and the Trebles will always sing! Bill added an Armrest Bevel and stunning Flamed Koa Bindings along with his elegant Sparkle MOP top trim and exquisite Yin-Yang inlay at the 12th fret. This guitar is inspiring in everyway and that’s what it’s all about. Here’s a great video of Loren Barrigar and Mark Mazengarb that features this Tippin guitar.
We loved this one so much that we teamed up with Al Petteway and recorded it on our latest album: Dream Guitars Volume II Hand Picked. It is Track #16 – The South Wind.
I still remember visiting Bill Tippin's shop for the first time many years ago with Martin Simpson. We were teaching in Marblehead, MA and Martin wanted to visit. We played a few guitars and Martin ordered 2 right on the spot. That's the kind of quality and tone Bill has mastered after 30+ years of putting his hands to wood. This incredible guitar was originally built for me. It did not stay in my stable only because it is too similar to another I have. I'll always wish I could have kept it, but we can't have them all :( 
Perfectly balanced from high frequencies to low, this is the ideal size guitar for fingerstyle. It is about the same dimensions as a 000 and is very comfortable to play. Tippins are famous for their clarity and presence and this one has plenty of both. | Scale Length | 25.5000 in |
