Home / Shop / Tippin DST 12 Made For Martin Simpson Madagascar/Alpine
Bill Tippin is one of our favorites in these parts, and here’s another reason why. His obsessive attention to detail, impeccable craftsmanship, and singular voice is clearly evident in this slope shoulder that was built for award winning guitarist Martin Simpson of England. The Madagascar rosewood back and sides are stunning, and they pair beautifully with an Alpine Spruce top to produce a tone that is both confident and velvety. Dream Guitars owner Paul Heumiller worked with Martin and Bill when this guitar was built and remembers it fondly. “Martin and I met Bill Tippin in the late 1990s and Martin flipped over Bill’s guitars and immediately ordered this DST and a 000.” – Paul Heumiller
