This established Minnesota USA guitar builder put his guitars in the hands of some amazing acoustic players including one of my all-time heroes, Leo Kottle.

Where do you start, it simply radiates quality wherever you look. The edge binding is exquisite, the five-piece neck is sublime. The Sapele back and sides are so highly figured and deep that it almost looks three-dimensional.

The close grain Spruce top is exceptional, it has the obligatory Waverly machine heads fitted to its Brazilian Rosewood-faced headstock.

Every perfection box is ticked along with the most important, the sound, you want balance with volume and clarity, you have it with this masterpiece.
