Concerto
The Concerto is the guitar I intended to make from the beginning. I wanted to make the "perfect" guitar, meaning that the size felt comfortable, the neck felt just right and the tone so true and responsive that you could play any style music without compromise. The Concerto can go from fingerstyle to flat picking to strumming and sound like it was built specifically for each. This guitar is the foundation for my motto: Simple elegance, uncompromising tone.

12/15

The 12/15 is a guitar I have wanted to build for a long time. I have had many requests over the years for a full bodied 12 fret guitar. Most 12 fret guitars out there are small body parlor guitars or dreadnaughts with the shoulders raised up to the 12th fret. The 12/15 is a true 12 fret guitar with a full 15" body. This means that the bridge is pushed back right to the center of the lower bout creating a full rich tone unique to its design. In some ways this guitar is my tribute to Torres and in it I have tried to embody the same qualities of his guitars that had such a major influence on my building; deep musical bass, crystaline trebles, dynamic presence and volume incongruent to it's smaller size.

Moderna

The Moderna is a nylon string guitar with the steel string player in mind. The body is built the same as a true classical guitar with the
same bracing style that Torres developed. However, the neck is slimmer and the fretboard is slightly radused making the Moderna more comfortablein the hands of a steel string player. This is designed to be the ultimate crossover guitar for the player that wants to transition easily between steel and nylon string guitars without compromising tone.

Solista

Solista comes from the Spanish for soloist. Strong in the fundamentals with a bass response slightly tightened and crisper than some of my other guitars, this small bodied guitar is voiced for the solo performer. If you’re playing delicate fingerstyle accompaniment like James Taylor or gritty delta blues like Robert Johnson, or anywhere in-between the Solista can take you there.

The Aria is my smallest guitar with dimensions similar to a 00. When I set out to build this guitar I wanted it to produce a sound much larger that would be expected from such a small body but at the same time it was essential not to loose the delicate intimacy that is the soul and signature of 00 style guitars. The result is a guitar that is both broad in it's tonal pallate but also dynamic and intimate. When it is just you alone with your music this is the guitar you reach for.
Also available with slotted headstock and "vintage" rectangle bridge.
