The magnificent Muriel Anderson takes a beautiful cedar and koa Thames for a spin on the TNAG - Carter Vintage couch.
A short demo of a Roe, the sound that comes out of this small guitar is incredible!
Thank you to the team @ TNAG
My good friend Andrea Valeri stopped by to say hi during the adgpa Rendez-vous and had a bit of fun on this Thames.
Here he plays his tune "The Journey Home" from his latest album "Mediterraneo"
Check him out: Andrea Valeri
A little video showcasing a 7 subs harp guitar by yours truly.
Italian spruce top, Italian walnut back and sides, ebony fingerboard, rosewood bridge and bindings.
Ryan style bevel, Elliott pinless bridge, maxmonte deconstructed rosettes.
During his concert @ Salti di Tono music center with Luca Francioso, Don Alder, canadian fingerstyle virtuoso, asked to play a short piece on my latest harp guitar. The instrument does not have any pickup system on board, so he just used his vocal microphone, and it sounds pretty good already!
A nice little instructional video with my model Thames recorded by fingerstyle player Michele Lideo.
Check it out!
This particular guitar was especially voiced for projection and classic blues playing, with a nice dry puncy sound.
Another peek at what happens in the lab. This is me prepping and glueing the scarf joint on the neck's headstock. This particular joint is one of the many places where I use hot hide glue... It's strong, it does not slip as much as modern glues when clamped, it resists heat well. Just a bit more work for many advantages :)
Stephen Bennett's ability to craft beatiful melodies is a gift that keeps on giving. Another great tune from his "Still on the line" cd, available on his website www.harpguitar.com.
He plays his Maxmonte Columbia in cedar/indian rosewood combo, a very sweet guitar!
Great video from the opening title of Matteo Gobbato's new album, "A window to somewhere", where he puts his Danube through its paces. Good job Matteo!
