Today I detailed and finish-sanded a Concert Nylon Cutaway that I'll be bringing to show at the Healdsburg Guitar Festival in August of next year. This guitar features a beautiful top of Italian alpine spruce. The back and sides, as well as the fingerboard and bridge, are of Macassar ebony from eastern Indonesia, and the trim is curly koa from the Hawaiian islands. The purpose of this Concert Nylon model is to offer the full rich tone of a classical guitar combined with a slimmer 14-fret neck that will more comfortable for guitarists who are accustomed to playing steel string.
