Virtuoso Archtop

[description]

The Virtuoso is currently my flagship model and is available in both 17 and 18 inch body sizes. Both models feature hand engraved, soap pierced, 24k gold plated tailpieces. The mother of pearl inlays are intricately hand engraved. A blue version was commissioned by the late Scott Chinery as part of the Blue Guitar Collection and I have since made several variations of blue guitars. Only the absolute finest of woods are selected for this model.
