[vc_row][vc_column width=”1/2″][vc_single_image image=”3717″ img_size=”large”][/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/2″][vc_column_text]You know, There are some times when I really think it might be better for me just to not say a word. Sometimes its just better to let the guitar do the talking. I didn’t study writing, I didn’t study poetry, and heck, I didn’t study guitar building, but I did master the craft.  And this guitar shows it.  What a beauty.

This is a Custom Model E Dome Top instrument. This was roughly the 10th or 12th Dome top guitar I had built and it is, along with the others, the foundation of what will be our Noble Gypsy Guitar line that we hope to launch as a Production instrument eventually. Right now this is only available as a custom order.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”1/2″][vc_single_image image=”3727″ img_size=”large”][/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/2″][vc_column_text]This particular guitar has Asian Ebony as the back and side wood, along with an Italian Spruce top with a wonderful Olympic White finish.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”1/2″][vc_single_image image=”3726″ img_size=”large”][/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/2″][vc_column_text]The offset oval sound hole brings a nice modern look to the guitar, and the Gold Mother of Pearl in the rosette brings everything together very nicely.  The mini hum bucker is a fun addition to these acoustic models![/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”1/2″][vc_single_image image=”3719″ img_size=”large”][/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/2″][vc_column_text]Hand Carved Asian Ebony floating bridge with delicate curves that balance the flow of the body lines, sound hole, and headstock.

What a spectacular instrument indeed.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row]
