Three Body Styles - FS, GC, D

  • The FS (Finger Style) is a smaller guitar (145/8 X 19 X 41/4) generally with a wider neck and built for light gauge strings. With an amazing tone characterized by balance and clarity, it is suited more for finger-style playing rather than flat picking.  Once you play one you won't be able to put it down.
  • The GC is a new model conceived after 30 years of thinking 2 models were enough. After numerous requests for a guitar that can effectively be used for both finger style and flat-picking, I have developed just such a guitar. A size that is in between the FS and the D (19 1/2" long,15 1/2" lower bout, 9 5/8" waist, 11 3/8" upper bout, 4 1/2"
  • The D size is ostensibly a dreadnought (16 X 20 X 47/8) but with a smaller, nicer looking waist which nestles the guitar more comfortably on your lap.  Made for medium gauge strings, this guitar will blow away anything new or vintage with power and balance.

Clarification: The 3 body styles (FS, GC and D) are all available with a cutaway as an option.
