Add to Compare1974 Somogyi “The First Ever” Jumbo Maple/Sitka Spruce
Here we have the genesis of Modern Lutherie, Ervin Somogyi’s #1. It is with delight and great honor for us to have this in the shop. It’s safe to say that this instrument is the catalyst that led to the development of the world of the modern fingerstlye string guitar. Recently restored by the master himself, this Jumbo from 1974 is reinvigorated are and ready to be played. Ervin tediously revoiced, refinished, and updated his #1. An updated neck profile, reshaped headstock, enlarged soundhole–essentially everything but the label was improved by Ervin. To have one of the most important steel string guitars revitalized and restored by the grandfather of modern lutherie himself is a magical thing. This Flamed Maple back and sides, and the Sitka Spruce top are original to the 1974 build. You can sense in this instrument that Ervin was developing something new, exploring uncharted territory and here marrying that with the best of his modern voicing techniques and aesthetics. This is where dream started.
