Bill Moll Express New Yorker 7 String 2006 Blonde

9.4 of 10 Condition (some light, superficial scratches and some weather crazing lines overall) For those bold guitarists who want to take on the challenge of tackling the 7 string. I don't believe Bill is building guitars at this time preferring to be in the more lucrative and less demanding world of voice overs ( you should hear his incredible baritone). Bill built some of the planets best archtops in his day - many being used by world-class players such as John Pizarelli. His guitars take their cues from violin construction and the sound show's it - very sweet with great sustain and projection. You just can get a better sound jazz guitar. Especially for chord melody style. course it has a new pro setup and plays like a laser. And the ornate "Deco" style headstock echos the designs of the master - John D"Angelico. BTW, the 11 ply binding on the headstock must have taken forever to execute with all those angle. We love this guitar! All solid, carved woods
