Here is a beautiful Bourgeois Soloist, which is an OM Cutaway design. This one features, Dalbergio Mysterioso, which means they think it’s Brazilian but can’t verify it. It sure looks and sounds like to us. The top is European Spruce adding to the power and clarity here. In typical Bourgeois fashion this guitar starts out in the Martin world of tone, but is sweeter, fuller and very pleasing to the ear. It plays very easily as well and has been well kept in excellent condition. If you are after a versatile guitar an OMC is perfect for you and this is a great one.

This guitar was built in honor of Richard Schneider, who along with Dr. Kasha worked to develop new bracing and voicing ideas for the modern guitar.

Then they took it to Dr. Kasha’s lab and performed acoustic tests which showed it outperforms earlier instruments. The body is crafted with a Redwood top and back and Brazilian Rosewood sides. The tone is robust with powerful bass notes and a strong and warm midrange. The Berillium Copper Frets make for easy play. This is a very rare Commemorative Edition.

We originally custom ordered this guitar to our specifications. We are delighted to have the chance to offer it again here. Builder Marc Maingard has a wonderful stash of perfect Cedar tops that he got from classical maker Jose Oribe of Spain. Knowing this we custom ordered this alluring Florentine cutaway Grand Concert. We requested a wonderful set of Marc’s dynamic Brazilian Rosewood and the special fingerboard crafted of bookmatched Brazilian Rosewood with wonderful colors. In fact, the same piece of Brazilian extends from the headstock down the fingerboard in lush harmony. This really is a breathtaking guitar, but you have to play to find it’s true beauty.
The voice is simply magical. For starters it’s very loud and responsive and it is also very clear and balanced, with a powerful bass and articulate and strong trebles. We are thrilled with this custom built Maingard.

Here we have a mint condition 2004 Phoenix Mandolins Deluxe Model. Insanely Figured Maple and Adirondack Spruce, strung with medium Thomastik strings for a gorgeous sound with superb playability. Rolfe Gerhardt hand makes these versatile Mandolins for players who want the best. You won’t believe the great feel these have!
From the Phoenix website: “The Deluxe Model was created as the result of requests by professional musicians who want a medium-string mandolin that would excel at all kinds of music but was styled with the clean, elegant appearance of the Neoclassical, and…would include a built-in pickup. To distinguish it from the Neoclassical: the Deluxe is colored with a lightly-sunburst, warm, violin dark-brown under the hybrid varnish; the Grover tuners are gold with custom black parts and buttons; and the fingerboard features the trademarked abalone vine created for the Unicorn Master Models of the 1970s and included on the “Pickin'” fingerboard poster.”
