The orchestral-bodied guitar was first introduced in 1929 with its hallmark 14-fret-to-mahogany-body construction. With our own proud roots in the storied Markneukirchen lutherie tradition, we’re thrilled to bring this dovetail classic into our current mix.  Our meticulously select mahogany, neatly-grained solid spruce and European expertise ensure crispness in response, singing midrange and focused musicality.  Understated herringbone appointments and brushed nickel machines are the perfect compliment.
