Brent McElroy describes his philosophy of guitar building as a balance between tone, strength, playability and beauty. From where we sit he's hitting on all cylinders. For years we've heard great things about Brent but just not had one in the shop. We just received 2 and we are thrilled with both. This unique guitar is a 12 fretter with the soundhole centered in the waist of the guitar. From its Claro Walnut and Spruce body comes a deep resonant voice with spectacular highs and more bass then the size let's on. It's very easy to hold and to play, the 24.9" scale insures easy string tension. An elegant and very musical guitar.
The string tension on this 12 fret sweetheart from Brent McElroy is a breeze. It's very easy to play and the shorter scale adds warmth and roundness to the tone as well. The woods and fit and finish are superb. We've long heard of Brent McElroy and you can be sure we'll be looking for more of his guitars....
The tone of this McElroy is sweet and balanced. The guitar has a standard 20 fret fingerboard, but has just 12 frets clear to the body which puts the soundhole slightly more toward the middle of the top creating a warm, rich tone.
