PlantillasMy standard model is based on a modified Hauser-I plantilla. The relatedness is actually limited to the appearance only. The internal construction as well as the tonal characteristics follow another ideal, with a more fundamental oriented ideal. |
TopThe wood, I use for the tops is either German-Spruce or Western Red Cedar. In addition to the conventional solid tops, I also build guitars with Sandwich construction for a while now. These instruments produce a more massive sound with strong fundamentals. |
Back and Sides
For the back and sides I use Indian rosewood or flamed Maple as standard woods. Brazilian rosewood and other varieties of wood are also available on request. |
NeckMy favorite neck-wood is Khaya-Mahogany or Alder (on Maple-instruments). |
FinishUsually, all instruments have a fine French-Polish. Alternatively I offer a variety of other coatings, starting with a very light Nitro-polish, over a regular sprayed Nitrocellulose-laquer up to a coating with a 2-component Polyurethane laquer, depending on the individual needs of each player. |
FingerboardThe fingerboards are usually made of African or Ceylon Ebony. |
BridgeThe material for the bridge usually matches the back and sides of the Instrument. I offer a rectangular or a lightly curved bridge. |
TunersMy standard tuners are Alessi for quite a while now. Other tuners such as Rodgers or Scheller are available on request. |
Nut / Saddle
Nut and saddle are made of bone. |
CaseThe instruments are delivered with a BAM hightech case. |
