***
A very nice crimson color on this exceptionally lightweight, contemporary archtop. The luthier’s stated mission is to propel the archtop guitar forward, and this one certainly has a unique, punchy sound to go along with its distinctive look. Brown guitars are played by professionals like Sean McGowan in the company of many fine archtops.
