This guitar was designed in collaboration with Matthew Stewart, a fine guitarist at the San Francisco Conservatory of Music. It is a modern classical guitar, with open harmonic bar bracing, a Swiss spruce soundboard and Indian rosewood back and sides. It departs from the traditional with an asymmetrical peghead, a cutaway, pearwood bindings and built in transducer and preamp. It also has a finely detailed mother of pearl vine rosette and a slightly arched fretboard, which steel string players have found facilitates barre chords.
It functions as a concert classical guitar and, amplified, as a jazz/classical guitar.

The cost for this guitar is $8,000
