Shasta

From the turn of the 20th century, reborn for the turn of the 21st century, the Shasta is a Parlor sized instrument.   Ideal for self accompaniment, yet strong enough to stand out in a group. The smaller body size is ideal for a younger guitarist or for a lady who doesn’t want to get lost behind a dreadnought.

Klamath

The Klamath classic OM is the  quintessential fingerstyle guitar developed in the 1930’s. An elegant balance of bass, mid range and treble tones that will project ‘out the back of the room’.

McCloud

The marriage of the Grand Auditorium style with the OM shape results in an instrument with new character. The  deeper body of the McCloud boosts not only the bass range, but opens up the midrange and makes the highs shimmer.

Trinity

The Trinity 000-12 fret is a sweetheart of a fingerstyle guitar from the 1920’s era. The 12th fret neck attachment at the body puts the bridge on the sweetest part of the soundboard for outstanding tonal balance and volume. The body shape is a classic representation of lovely curves.

Humboldt

The Humboldt is the flat picker’s Holy Grail! This is ‘the guitar’ for the Blue Grass dreadnought sound, yet it can be adapted to a wide variety of styles. While this issue has that big bass you would expect, attention to the upper registers provides an instrument that will truly inspire you to get out of the old ‘boom-chucka, boom-chucka’ rhythm mode!

Rubicon

The Rubicon is a new model based on the small jumbo guitar body.  The body dimensions offer a rich spectrum of sounds, supported by great overtone development and sustain.

Tuolumne

The Tuolumne was developed to provide the popular small jumbo body shape in an instrument with "OM'ish" dimensions, reminiscent of the Guild F-30 of the 1960's.  Outstanding tonal development occurs in an instrument that is extremely comfortable to play.

Mokelumne

The Mokelumne was developed from the traditional OO body style (both 12 and 14 fret variants) with the purpose of obtaining outstanding tonal characteristics in a small bodied instrument.  While larger than the Shaste Parlor, it is still a guitar that you can hunker down on your favorite chair and play comfortably.
