Says Red Molly to James, ‘Well, that’s a fine motor…guitar.’ This is a guitar, not a motorcycle, but a mighty fine one indeed. You know, for it to bear the name Richard Thompson, it’s bound to be quite a delightful instrument. From Lowden, we have a 2014 Richard Thompson Signature, also an F model. This Irish beast is decked out in AAAA-Red Cedar and Figured Ziricote. What a sonorous combination this is. All of the George Lowden features you know and love are here, very well-loved and cared for, and ready for years and years of more music-making.

A truly bespoke experience. This 2013 flattop from Japan’s Mitsuhiro Uchida is a one-off, original design exectued with African Blackwood body and Cedar top, Spanish heel construction that couples with a twisting, bending upper bout shoulders/cutaway design. Uchida builds one instrument, and never repeats himself, opting to listen to each client’s needs and desires and responding with the perfect instrument. This is the first time we’ve seen one of Uchida’s instruments, after almost 25 years in the business. That in itself is incredible to consider. But then, the actual experience of playing this instrument is the real magic. Truly unique.

This guitar is a masterpiece. ‘Sinfonietta‘ is an Italian word meaning ‘little symphony’ — this is probably the most accurate name for a guitar of all time. From Benedetto, this archtop from 2008 is superlative to all that is an acoustic archtop: depth, warmth, resonance, power, and meticulous fit and finish. Really, this instrument will do whatever you could ask of it. For the player and collector alike, this instrument will do one thing exceptionally well: enhance your musical life. Gorgeous Maple and tightly grained Spruce, which has loads of medullary rays. The demo speaks for itself. What a true joy to have this in the shop!

Add to CompareBrand New Pogreba Resonator, Blue Oldsmobile
Is it an Oldsmobile? A piece of art? Or a resophonic guitar? Well, it’s all of those things and more! The latest from the workshop of Larry Pogreba, and it’s, well, very blue. It is also just as fun musically as it is visually interesting. There really isn’t anything one can compare the sound of this to; from acoustically to plugged in, this instrument is quite a joy ride—pun fully intended. Equipped with a single-coil pickup, this guitar is ready for any application.

This is the Dream Series that started it all! In 2007 Bill and Paul collaborated on spec’ing out #1 with African Blackwood back and sides and Cedar on top, the result of which is a voice equal parts chocolate rich and crystalline clarity. Such a powerhouse combination, and in Bill’s Crescendo body to make the playing experience oh so comfortable to boot. Opal inlays at the first fret and at the tail, plus Snakewood appointments and a Brazilian Rosewood bridge, combine with Bill’s sense of curve for a gorgeous viewing experience (on those rare moments you won’t be playing this one). Setup is excellent for fingerstyle play, and it loves tuning down to D and even C territory. There’s even a K&K Pure Mini pickup to carry you onto the stage! And a Calton case for safe keeping.
This beauty has opened up fantastically in the intervening years, and we’re so grateful to visit with it again. 2007 Tippin Dream Series #1! Get it while you can.Here’s an additional demo from the past! https://youtu.be/1GhUSarnUCk

Kim builds ‘em right. We just landed a 2001 000 decked out in 42-style Abalone appointments, Cocobolo, and Adirondack Spruce that’s a 100% dream machine. Fingertips or flatpicks don’t matter; this gorgeous Kim Walker fills the room with excellent clarity and note separation, not to mention sustain. The Mahogany neck is finished in half satin, and the left hand glides oh so easily. 12 frets to the body, combined with 25.4 long scale, makes for a nice balance between warmth and attack, and we love just how easily the Walker plays. For safety’s sake, we’re selling this powerhouse with a form-fitting Calton flight case.

This one is a sweet slice of guitar heaven from Keystone Guitars.

An excellent fingerstyle guitar, hands down. Additionally, this SJ is further customized with dramatic Snakewood appointments everywhere, from the headstock to the fretboard, the bridge and the rosette, bindings–the works.

This guitar is magic, simply put. This 2021 Traugott Model R has everything one would expect from the workshop of Jeff Traugott, with one curveball. The back and sides are African Blackwood, which is in and of itself a rare enough tonewood, but this is the first time we have seen it on one of Jeff’s guitars. Which makes for one interesting instrument. Not only do you have the power and clarity the Model R is known for, but now there is an extra dimension of low mids that are unique to African Blackwood. The characteristics of the German Spruce are not lost in the mix ever. It is quite like a piano in its sonority, and quality. While we are in the business of providing dream guitars to the world. This is unmistakably a “guitar of your dreams.”
