Brand New Casimi C2S, African Blackwood/Alpine Moonspruce

Brand New Steve Grimes Luthiers For A Cause Parlor, Maple/Sitka Spruce
We originally sold this guitar as part of the LFAC auction, and now we are reselling it as like new to benefit the Ukulele Kids Club a second time!
We are excited to be partnering with the Ukulele Kids Club Inc., along with four outstanding luthiers: Steve Grimes, Jay Lichty, Peter Robson, and Ben Wilborn, as the platform that will sell four one-of-a-kind guitars to help bring the healing power of music to medically fragile children. It is our honor to support the efforts of these altruistic luthiers who have chosen to donate these fine instruments to benefit so many children in need. All partners and luthiers are proud to share that 100% of the proceeds from the sale will benefit the Ukulele Kids Club Inc.
Here we’ve got Steve Grimes’ FHP-33 parlor guitar with some asymmetrical curves. As with all four LFAC guitars, the body is Flame Maple with Sitka Spruce on top, supplied by Steve. In addition to asymmetrical proportions, Steve also includes a carved back like you’d find on an archtop guitar. Here that comes together in a slim package that nonetheless has a sizeable voice under the hood. Great string energy and quick, snappy decay makes for a solid blues guitar, but there’s also a touch of sweetness and roundness in the trebles that works well for a range of styles.

2016 Blazer & Henkes D-42, Brazilian Rosewood/Alpine Spruce
When a good guitar calls, you answer. This 2016 B&H D-42 is such a guitar. Excellent projection and sustain, paired with great balance across the strings, makes for an extra articulate dreadnought. Sensitive enough for fingerstyle play, and with heaps of headroom for flatpicking. We’d expect no less! Alpine Spruce over Brazilian Rosewood with a shade top finish, 42-style Abalone appointments throughout, and gold Waverly tuners as the cherries on top. Build weight is 4.5lbs, and the neck has a full feel in hand with well-rounded V profile. This beauty was built in 2016!

2017 Åstrand Å-OM, Madagascar Rosewood/European Moonspruce
Ted Åstrand grants us the resonant gift with this 2017 Å-OM. Madagascar Rosewood back and sides paired with a European Alpine Moonspruce top, 25 inch scale, and slotted headstock; “Scissor Bird” fretboard inlay and Koa bindings to tie it all together. The 14-fret neck is rubbed down to a feather-smooth velvety finish, and the C profile has a faint peak that almost minutely hints at a V. Nickel Waverly tuners offset the Rosewood headstock veneer, and the fiery-dark grain of the Rosewood bridge similarly sets off the creamy expanse of the Moon Spruce top.
This Å-OM has a lively voice which errs on the side of dry articulation over enveloping overtones. The upper register cuts well, pairs nicely with the crunchy mids. The bass response is light and energetic rather than dark, which isn’t to say the overall tone suffers from an atrophied bass. Rather, the voice is exceedingly well-balanced, with even response across all the registers and great note separation. The shorter scale and matte-finished neck make for a comfortable playing experience, and boasting a fighting weight of 4lbs 1oz this Åstrand feels quick and agile in your hands.
