252 This is a special handpicked set of T’zalam or Mayan Walnut that was cut from a huge tree. The flame is awesome and the tone is a cross between EIR and Walnut. Wood with dark rich depth. The Cedar adds fingerstyle sparkle, but don’t think you can’t crank this baby up! It’s shines with a plectrum and strumming is phenomenal. What a beautiful piece of art you can play!

Small Jumbo Cutaway

 

Performance Series

258 Carabali is newly discovered and does it have a tone! It’s a steroid cross between Rosewood and Mahogany. This Charis Creation has the dark, rich lush bass that you would expect from Rosewood but the mids and trebles are powerful 1-2 punches that cut through the mix. This is what everyone has been wanting…an acoustic guitar that does everything well.

278 It all started with East Indian Rosewood and Sitka Spruce. To this day, there is nothing that compares to the versatility of this combination. In the hands of a master like Bill Wise it comes alive like nothing you have ever experienced.

This is a truly handmade guitar that you will keep and keep and keep!
