This guitar is finished in a tobacco sunburst, and inlayed in abalone around the sound hole and edge of the top. A double vine inlay in the fingerboard is partially visible in this shot as well. Click on the picture for a more detailed view. Here is a shot of the headstock of the guitar pictured above featuring a torch inlay and gold plated Grover tuners. This archtop guitar is patterned after Bob Benedetto's designs. This guitar was a custom order. We focus on mandolins and dreadnaught guitars, but enjoy branching out on occasion. This guitar sounds great amplified or unplugged, This shot shows  the beautiful flame in the maple that was used to build this guitar. The European maple and German Spruce that this guitar was built from is expensive, but the look and sound is worth it. This is my personal guitar. I varied the fret board inlay to match my personal tastes. While we tend to build very traditional instruments, there is always room for personalization. This is a close-up of the abalone inlay around the sound hole and top of my personal guitar.
