2007 David Thomas McNaught (DTM) SC – Master Grade Quilt Top – Collector Condition

Some guitars are great instruments. A select few are works of art. This 2007 David Thomas McNaught SC is both.

If you're familiar with David Thomas McNaught guitars, you already know they are among the finest boutique instruments ever built—crafted in limited numbers, highly sought after by collectors, and revered by players who appreciate uncompromising attention to detail. This particular example is one of the most stunning McNaughts I have ever owned, and after 15 years with it, selling it is not a decision I ever imagined making.

The guitar is in exceptional, collector-grade condition. Quite simply, I cannot find a flaw on it. It has spent its life being carefully cared for and rarely played because it is such a breathtaking piece of craftsmanship.

This guitar plays effortlessly and sounds every bit as incredible as it looks.

I will continue searching for the original Certificate of Authenticity and believe I still have it somewhere, but I cannot guarantee its inclusion at this time.

The only reason this guitar is being offered is because family priorities come first. My children's education expenses require me to make a difficult decision, and as heartbreaking as it is, this incredible instrument deserves to be played and appreciated rather than remain tucked away in its case.

Whoever ends up with this guitar will understand immediately why I've held onto it for the last 15 years—and why they will likely never let it go.
