CONCERT 12 FRET

  I also make a 12 fret version of my concert size guitar.  I have always loved 12 fret guitars - by moving the bridge closer to the center of the effective portion of the soundboard, one can significantly change - and, (to my ear),  improve - the tonal qualities of the guitar.  By adding a cutaway the loss of access to high frets is minimized and you have a absolutely wonderful guitar.  The cutaway is not essential and I will make this without one.  I have been making this with a slot head and a pyramid bridge, because I love the look, but do not need to do this (these items add about $500 to the price).  I really love this guitar.
