2006 Tippin Dream Series Brazilian/Carpathian
The first of our Dream Series from Bill Tippin never even made it to our website. That’s no surprise considering that this Series features extremely rare “old growth” Brazilian and gem quality Opal inlay, but it’s the tone that sets it apart. Built upon Bill’s Crescendo body shape, it boasts a voice that’s strong and clear. As its name implies, it’s a very loud guitar, but each note is full of rich character. The appointments are breath-taking and include “gem quality” Opal inlay, Bloodwood bindings, hand-made Koa top trim and a custom Brazilian bridge. This guitar is the perfect mix of power and beauty.

The Dream Series is a very special collaboration with Bill Wise of Charis Acoustics. The goal of this series is to build a guitar with uncomprimised tone and to adorn it with understated wooden appointments. For this one, #4 of 10 to be made we selected a very old and rich set of Brazilian rosewood. It has very tight grain just a hint of wave to it, definitely quarter sawn for classic tone. This is a much higher grade of wood that most sets you see today. Combined here with Cedar for a deep, warm tone that is rich and glorious. The strummed sound is warm, shimmering and full. Played fingerstyle it’s very rich and powerful, lot’s of projection and sweet, sweet mids. Bill Wise is creating some very special guitars indeed.
