Black as night and sweet as sin. This 1991 Gibson Master Model L-4CES is a tall, dark drink of water with a wide range of tones under the hood.

This is a fine piece of modern archtop lutherie if ever we’ve seen it. Bryant Trenier’s approach with the Motif model is plainly dressed, all the better to showcase a rich and expressive voice and high quality tonewoods. European Spruce top carved with an X brace pattern and oval hole; carved Mahogany back and sides, venetian cutaway plus a 3″ body depth for easy playability–and this resonant beauty weighs in under five pounds. Trenier designed this 2008 Motif with acoustic fingerstyle play in mind, and at that it certainly excels. There’s also good headroom for a pick attack. The neck has had the finish smoothed down for a bare wood feel that feels, well, perfect, with an overall full profile that just fits. This instrument is currently purely acoustic, but the pickup jack from a previous pickup remains installed should you choose to amplify.

Brand new and available, for now–our latest R.2 from Tyler Robbins is the modern guitarist’s sweet dream come true. The R.2 is a slender build in the 00 range, but thanks to Tyler’s abilities it retains a full and complex voice and dynamic range. If you’re looking for a lot of sound with petite proportions, you’ve found it. Ziricote body with German Spruce top, 12 fret body join plus cutaway and a 25.5″ scale setup; EVO frets; Gotoh 510 mini tuners. Tyler leaned into a geometric exploration for the aesthetic package, including a soundhole that conforms to the angles of the rosette, as well as a green and bronze motif there and at the headstock. Add an arm bevel to the mix for maximum player comfort–executed with a Ryan-style taper at the bottom and squared off at the top.

SOLD Read moreScale Length 25 in Nut Width 1.75 in String Spacing 2.313 in Woods Spruce - Adirondack (Red), Mahogany Brand New LHT Fifth Single Cutaway, Flamed Maple/Sitka Spruce
Tyler Wells continues to impress! This is the latest model we’ve had the pleasure of offering here at the shop, and we’re frankly on the fence about selling it at all–we just want this one for ourselves. The LHT Fifth is a thin hollowbody with offset F holes/integrated soundports, finished with a hot-under-the-collar black and red sunburst, and simply wired with a Righteous Sounds humbucker. It’s the little details that set this LHT apart from the rest, like the bridge carve with added mass on the bass side, the flawless fit and finish, and most importantly volume and tone knobs that go to eleven. Figured Maple back and sides against a Sitka Spruce top; Mahogany neck plus 24 fret Ebony fingerboard; and a little over five pounds soaking wet.

John Buscarino’s Cabaret model is the ideal crossover instrument: easy to play, easy on the eyes, chock full of modern features, and clear and powerful to boot. This 2021 Cabaret Custom is decked out with Red Cedar top, Sapele back and sides, cutaway, and an oak leaf-shaped soundport. A James May Ultra Tonic pickup brings you into amplified territory with ease, too. The back is carved to give the body more air to move, without making the sides deep and inhibiting playability. The result is a deceptively effortless playing experience.
