A true one-of-a-kind, bespoke piece of functional art. Thank you, Matthias and Matthew of Casimi Guitars—this C2S is perfection.

Serious powerhouse on the scene; hard to put this beauty down for any length of time. Simon Fay knocked it right out of the park with this OM from 2009—lively and energetic, crisp with great pop!, fires right out of the soundhole. This one takes to a flatpick like a natural, and has enough sensitivity to respond great under fingers as well. This exemplifies the attributes of the OM, namely, well-rounded and equally at home in every setting. Additionally, the setup is silky smooth, and Fay pulled out gorgeous tonewoods to dress it up. Flamed Claro Walnut back and sides (elements of crisp and woody tone) with Sinker Redwood on top (and the warmth and color that fills out the rest of the voice), plus Snakewood bindings and a soundport for creature comforts. The sides are double thicknessed with Zebrawood interiors, and Simon braced the Redwood top with his unique T bracing pattern.

George Lowden’s F body does it all, and does so exceedingly well. Here paired with AAAA Ebony back and sides and AAAA Sinker Redwood on top and Tasmanian Blackwood bindings/bevel, the resulting voice combines a punchy bottom end with warm mids and smooth trebles that cut nicely through the mix. The GL Standard neck profile feels full in hand with a generous C-shaped profile, and this beauty has a silk-smooth setup that feels effortless.

A lovely number that’s ready for action! Check out this 2010 M.J. Franks Legacy Dreadnought if you’re looking for a Bluegrass powerhouse that’s sensitive enough for a light touch as easily as an aggressive attack.

The voice has great balance across the registers, with the lively, opened up quality that only comes after several years of music, which this M.J. Franks certainly has had. Well cared for and rocking an easy setup to boot!

A nearly new Ryan Paradiso, get it before it’s gone! This lovely number comes to us from 2020 with lightweight Mahogany body and Engelmann Spruce on top, plus Kevin’s full suite of Design Innovations to meet the needs of virtually any guitar player. The GC body has a heavily arched back for added resonance and projection without being a big guitar (the lower bout is only 15 1/4” across), and the addition of the bevel with acoustic flutes and florentine cutaway make for an effortless playing experience to boot. The voice is glassy and clear, with sweet trebles pairing with a juicy, juicy midrange. It’s a fingerstyle powerhouse that’s equally at home with picks and strumming.

Paul McGill is a household name in Nashville’s session scene, and the reason is crossover masterpieces like this Super Ace from 2014. Figured Maple back and sides with Lutz Spruce on top, radiused fretboard and cutaway, plus Paul’s custom onboard preamp and Graphtech saddle pickup system—and that’s just the start. The setup is effortless on this beauty, and with a longer, 25 3/4” scale, the voice is crisp, expressive, and very energetic. Equally at home with a Classical repertoire, Jazz, Blues, or any other genre you want to throw it into. Additionally, there’s a soundport in the upper bout to give the player a little more “me in the monitor,” and a sloping venetian cutaway for unencumbered access to those uppermost frets. Cocobolo bindings throughout (as well as the bridge and headstock veneer) really set of the amber palette of the Maple and Lutz.
