A nearly new 00 from Bevan Frost’s Big Hollow workshop! Built in 2018, this beauty already sounds alive and open, all the better to show off the Honduran Rosewood back and sides and Adirondack Spruce top. Bevan finished this one with Oil Varnish in a dark and emotive sunburst that’s offset by Bloodwood bindings and herringbone trim. Rubner tuners and an Ameritage case complete the package.
The voice is equal parts sweet trebles and smoky bass. Bevan chose wisely when he opted for a dark sunburst; it matches the tone to a T. The setup is dialed in for easy playability, and at just over four pounds this Big Hollow 00 is a lightweight guitar that it’s easy to spend long hours with.Other keywords: lutherie, luthier, honduras rosewood, adirondack, fingerstyle, oo, slot head, slotted head

Add to Compare1992 Olson SJ, Indian Rosewood/Cedar
This 1992 Olson SJ falls in one of our favorite ranges for Jim’s guitars from the 1990s. The voice is sweet and melodic, completely opened up and responsive, and the setup is slinky smooth in just about every application. The original LB6 pickup has been replaced with a McIntyre Feather (you’ll find the LB6 in the neck compartment of the case), and we’re happy to report that it sounds rich and organic, even plugged straight into an amp without additional preamp power. Bill Tippin did some work on this beauty, and it’s in fabulous condition for many more years of good tunes ahead. Indian Rosewood back and sides, Cedar top, the classic Olson sound.

Add to Compare1996 Smallman Concert Classical, Brazilian Rosewood/Cedar
This guitar needs no introduction. You’re looking at a 1996 Lattice Classical from Greg Smallman. Brazilian Rosewood back and sides paired with Cedar on top, XXXXX tuners, and the original Tiger Eye wooden case. Touched by a master, this Smallman was originally owned by none other than virtuoso David Tenanbaum. You can find recordings of David with this guitar on his self-titled 1997 record (https://www.discogs.com/David-Tanenbaum-David-Tanenbaum/release/5755209). In true Smallman fashion, this guitar has a signature heft to it, and the fearsome projection and sustain that characterize Greg’s finest work. What more is there to say? A Smallman is completely in its own category, a legacy instrument.

Add to Compare1992 Henderson D-28 Indian Rosewood/Spruce
This is one of Wayne Henderson’s Dreadnoughts that hasn’t been collecting dust! Coming to us all the way from 1992 in Indian Rosewood and Spruce, this 28-style D has opened up handsomely and combines a fierce projection with a meaty treble response fit for a flatpicker’s fantasy. Solo work cuts right through the mix, and the setup is easy on the hands to keep you in the groove longer. This one has some honest play wear to match its broken-in voice, and it’s ready to keep on churning out music for another 25 years.

Add to CompareBrand New Dion No. 4, Birdseye Maple/Engelmann Spruce
In addition to the brand new No. 4 we recently landed from Dion, we’ve got a lovingly played-in 2017 No. 4 which North Dakota musician Tom Brousseau recently toured with. Birdseye Maple back and sides paired with an Engelmann Spruce top, Dion’s ultra smooth black-dyed Spanish Cedar neck, and a lively, cracklin’ voice that breathes energy into your playing. An upper bout soundport gives the player a bit more “me in the monitor,” and the setup is slick and easy on the hands. We love the clear and even response this No. 4 offers, from fret one all the way to dusty number 20. Dion’s aesthetic lets the quality of the wood speak for itself, and the figure of the Birdseye Maple throughout speaks volumes. And we’re listening.

Add to Compare2019 McPherson MG-4.5XP, Myrtlewood/Adirondack Spruce
The folks at McPherson Guitars continue to improve on their powerhouse designs. This 2019 MG-4.5XP is incredible. Myrtlewood back and sides with Adirondack Spruce on top and an L.R. Baggs Element pickup to boot, this McPherson has crisp definition and the calibre of clear to let big chords ring out in all their complexity; a fingerstyle finery. It handles C# tuning like a champ while retaining a snappy bass response and easy playability. From head to toe, this McPherson is proof that the state of modern lutherie has never been better.

We’ve got a lovely 2014 Blues Creek 000-28 from John Hall that’s a breeze for fingertips as easily as flatpicks, and packs a punchy midrange to boot. Brazilian Rosewood back and sides in classic combination with Adirondack Spruce and 28-style appointments, 12-fret neck, 24.9” short scale; an agile and responsive Martin-style 000 we’d recommend for just about everything.

Add to Compare2015 PRS Custom 24 Retro/30th Anniversary Dragon Limited
Pure iconic. What to say of a guitar such as this, when pictures do so much more justice? This 2015 PRS is number nine of 40 guitars built for Paul Reed Smith’s 30th Anniversary, complete with over 285 individual pieces of inlay, African Ribbon Mahogany body, and a “nightshade” dyed Curly Maple top veneer. This is a true museum-quality piece of PRS history, and comes to us in accordingly mint condition, right down to the Private Stock 30th Anniversary leather case. The sheer amount of work that went into this guitar is staggering, but the effort is worth the result: pure iconic.

Add to Compare2014 PRS Angelus Cutaway, Curly Maple/Engelmann Spruce
Rich, balanced, and responsive. We love this 2014 PRS Angelus Private Stock, plain and simple. Quilted Maple back and sides in “Bahamian Blue,” Engelmann Spruce on top, and corresponding “Blue Tortugas” turtle inlays along the fretboard and headstock. The headstock alone features over six different inlay materials. L.R. Baggs Lyric pickup, Ameritage case, and a 25.25” scale rounds out the spec sheet. We love playing this PRS in C# tunings, where the bass opened up a bit more, but it held its own in fine form at concert pitch as well. This PRS Angelus Private Stock is near mint, and ready for action.

Add to Compare2007 Ryan Nightingale Grand Soloist, African Blackwood/Engelmann Spruce
Tall, dark, and handsome. Our latest Ryan comes to us from 2007, and it’s blossomed handsomely in the intervening years. African Blackwood back and sides with an Engelmann Spruce top & arm bevel, this Nightingale Grand Soloist has an extremely smooth response from nut to saddle, and plays even more smoothly. The setup is glass; this Ryan almost plays itself. We found this one soaked up DADGAD particularly well, where the bass strings sweetened up without turning muddy. In excellent condition, and comes bundled with a McIntyre Feather pickup for onstage work, and a Calton flight case to safely deliver this Ryan to that stage. Kevin manages to coax a lot of color out of his guitars when voicing them, and that’s here with this Nightingale in spades, which dovetails nicely with the string-to-string balance for a rich, fat tone.

Add to Compare2013 Martin 000-45EC Crossroads, Madagascar Rosewood/Adirondack Spruce
So close to new, the case still has that new car smell. We’ve landed an incredible 2013 Martin 000-45EC Crossroads in Madagascar Rosewood and Adirondack Spruce that’s dead mint and shining like a polished silver dollar. Every detail is executed in exquisite fashion, from the 45-style Abalone trim to the crossroads emblem-inlaid bridge, and Martin saved their primo tonewoods for use here. This is one of only 55 such guitars built, and the label and certificate of authenticity both bear Clapton’s signature. Built to 1930s specs, this 000-45EC Crossroads has a crisp response and airiness that lends itself well to a multitude of styles. While it’s particularly well-suited for fingerstyle work, it also holds up handsomely to a pick as well.

Add to Compare2018 Kostal 00, Koa/German Spruce
Sometimes elegance comes in small packages, like this 2018 Kostal 00. Jason’s smallest guitar punches far above its weight with a rich and focused bass response paired with glass-smooth trebles and exquisite string-to-string balance. This beauty comes to us with a striking set of Koa for the back and sides, and the calibre of German Spruce top that we’ve come to expect from Jason. 12-fret neck and 24.9” scale add a touch of extra warmth, and slip the setup into easy playing territory. Jason’s segmented headstock is here executed in Ebony and Mahogany; taken with the scalloped nut & saddle and “Stained Glass” rosette, the aesthetic of this Kostal 00 cuts a distinct figure that feels familiar and exciting at the same time. Wrapped up in a Hoffee flight case, this Kostal will be safe and sound wherever you take it.

A bona fide stick of dynamite. We are blown away by this 2016 Froggy Bottom M14 Limited every single time we pick it up. Sapele back and sides, German Spruce top, and an immense voice waiting to be tapped. This Froggy has a quick and lively response; very energetic; slick setup; comfortable dimensions. It sounds like a much larger instrument than its trim curves imply, perfect for flatpicks as easily as fingertips. Michael Millard’s Limited appointment package here comes with Abalone trim, Curly Maple bindings, Abalone fretboard inlays, and Waverly tuners. A Dazzo passive pickup has been installed which works great, and this 2016 Froggy Bottom M14 Limited is in excellent condition.
