Michael Dunn “Air Mail Special” Archtop (2004) – Boutique Masterpiece with Aviation Inlays

Here’s a rare opportunity to own a truly one-of-a-kind boutique archtop from master Canadian luthier Michael Dunn. Built in 2004 in Vancouver, the Air Mail Special is a stunning showcase of craftsmanship, creativity, and sonic excellence—highly sought after by collectors and serious players alike.

Key Features:

• Unique Aesthetic: The ebony fingerboard features custom airplane inlays, each meticulously crafted with precision and imagination. A matching airplane inlay on the back, made from decorative wood, completes the aviation-inspired theme—this guitar is as much a visual statement as it is a musical one.
• Premium Tonewoods: The top is made from reclaimed Douglas fir spruce, known for its exceptional clarity and resonance. The back and sides are highly flamed maple, offering both rich tone and striking beauty.
• High-End Finish: Glossy nitrocellulose lacquer finish that’s both thin and durable, allowing the wood to breathe and resonate fully.
• Condition: Professionally maintained, excellent condition, stored in its original custom flight case.
• Extras: Comes with a recent professional appraisal documenting its current value.

This is a professional-quality instrument with an artistic soul—ideal for the discerning musician or collector who appreciates boutique luthiery and rare finds.
