2004 Flammang GC Brazilian/Adirondack Red
Here’s one for the player who loves the feel of a short scale 12 fretter with a wide fingerboard. This FLammang Guitar feels like butter with it’s short 24.75 string length. The 12 neck joint not only makes for a comfortable reach for the left-hand but also puts the bridge directly in the sweet spot of the top for maximum tone. And tone this one has, Brazilian Rosewood topped with Adirondack spruce for classic voicing. It’s adorned in the 42 style abalone and fingerboard pattern, capped with a beautiful torch inlay on the headstock. This is by far the best sounding and playing Flammang guitar we have ever seen. A treasure.

New BCKingston Fusion Mahogany/Quilted Maple Fralin Pickups
What player hasn’t longed for one of those great old Gibson 335s. Well once you play this Kingston Fusion you’ll never want a Gibson again. The craftsmenship and tone of this guitar are extraordinary. Much more responsive than a factory build semi-hollow guitar and the woods are top notch. We love the rich brown stain on this stunning solid Quilted Maple carved top. The Bigsby Tremolo and custom Fralin Pickups give it versatility and style. The playability and tone are superb, as you would expect from a luthier with over 30 years of experience. This is the real deal, a custom, handmade semi-hollow guitar perfect for blues, jazz and of course Fusion. From Brian Kingston “The Fusion is my take on this venerable guitar. To find more tone I’ve replaced the plywood top, back and sides of the “335” with solid select tone woods. The Fusions mahagony neck, sides, kerfing, centerblock and fully carved back form a homogenous unit that really warms the tone and feeds the sustain. When the bite of the fully carved premium quilted or European curly maple top is coupled with the clarity, articulation and punch of the custom order Lindy Fralin humbuckers and added to the equation; the result is that the Fusion is capable of almost pure acoustic sounds right up thru those big, fat, creamy Duane Allman sounds.”
