it`s a 12 fret dred of koa / and bearclaw sitka

I only got to see this one for a few minutes after i set it up...as my client was really chomping at the bit to take it home.
He brought it over the other night so I finally got to play it a little and take a picture or two.

these 12 fret dreds are awesome fingerstyle guitars. I play alot of 6,4 5,4 thumb stuff and i just love the responce i get from this model...in fact i crave it!

thanks for looking
Matt

Another beauty from you, Matt! I always like what you have to show, this is no exception.

I have actually had the pleasure of playing some of Matt's guitars before, so if he says it's good I can pretty much assure you all that this is a very REAL guitar, not a "GLO" to borrow a term from another current thread. In case anyone wondered.

Beautiful, Matt! You took a Martin idea and made something that doesn't look at all like a Martin. I like that!

That's one sweet guitar there Matt, I hope you'll be bringing something like that to Cali. See ya soon!!!

Haven't had much time to visit lately.
But saw this thread topic last night and thought,
this one will be rewarding for sure.
Is it ever! And a 12-fret dread... wonderful.
AND, Koa to boot! Great looking guitar, Matt.
(What's got me all fired up is a customer wanting this
very combination. Now I can assure him how nice it will
look. OR...just tell him to call you...

Naaaahhh, better not!)

Thanks for the inspiration.

Steve
