This is a very special Santa Cruz Dreadnought, a sweetheart 12 fretter made for the 2004 NAMM show as a Luthier Series custom and signed by Luthier Eric Poulsen (now an independent luthier) and Joseph K. It was originally owned by Nashville musician Dan Kelly. It is crafted from rich and powerful Cocobolo Rosewood and topped with Sitka Spruce for power and a rich tone. The 12 fret design puts the bridge in the sweet spot where it can shake the whole top efficiently. We find this one can go from bluegrass cannon to fingerstyle gem in a flash. This D has been played enough to be wide open and sounding alive. There is also a John Pearse armrest for comfort or it can be easily removed if you prefer.

For our first guitar from Simon he selected a rare and wondrous ‘Sinker’ Redwood top. This is rare Redwood salvaged after more than 100 years at the bottom of the Big River near Mendocini California. It is thought to have originally grown high up on the ridge in conditions that make it very stiff and strong. This Sinker Redwood can be made thinner than typical Redwood and we can tell you the voice is astonishing. The Sinker Redwood combines with the highly figured Walnut body to put forth a completely satisfying voice for fingerstyle or strumming. The notes are clear and articulate, yet round and warm. This top is definitely a bit more brilliant than usual on a Redwood guitar. We love the natural dark color which comes from mineral deposits in the river. We invite you to view the first of many Fay guitars.

Mervyn Davis has created a fresh and exciting guitar design that is not only artistic and eye-catching but completely musical and practical. His Smoothtalker design concept features very stiff back and sides, not unlike what many modern makers are doing these days, and a fan braced Spruce top that because of the body design is extremely lively and responsive. Soundports in the waist and near the neck flood the player with the beautiful voice. The result of this design is an instrument with serious projection and extreme clarity. The trebles strings simply soar, with more density and volume than the average guitar. The bass is focused and clear also with profound power. The Smoothtalker is extremely versatile and well suited for Blues, Jazz and any style where a strong fundamental and power are required. We even had fun playing classical and Flamenco on it. The Smoothtalker also comes outfitted with a Baggs Active Element and a deluxe Cedar Creek case. This is an inspirational new design straight from South Africa.

Ron Phillips started years ago making by hand his exquisite metal body resonator guitars. He uses German Silver and spins his own cones which enables him to get his distinctive sound that is at once powerful and mellow. It is reminiscent of a 1920s National that has matured fully. The attack is not as harsh as some resos and overtones are very musical. His OM body is 14 3/4″ at the lower bout and has a rich, full sound that is equally at home accompanying voice or playing slide or fingerstyle. The woven grills and diamond cone cover grills are not only beautiful but really allow the sound to come forth proudly and his laminated neck is ultra stable. If you’ve been searching for a higher quality resonator guitar, you’ll love Ron Phillips’ guitars.
