This guitar was a commissioned by a lovely client from Europe who wanted to have the guitar made in honor of his young daughter. He also wanted to include some design details that reminded him of his love for stonework in Barcelona, and his family heritage. The rosette is a tile mosaic made from fossilized mammoth ivory, and hides his daughters name, which is written in an ancient script. Highly figured Koa accents the beautiful Claro Walnut back and sides and the Swiss moon spruce soundboard. This guitar was a joy to make, and I couldn’t have been happier with the end result.
