- "Bill Tippin educated me a long time ago about the
virtues of Kaya Mahogany and this guitar is a prime example
of it's character. Rich, warm and lush sounding. Combined
with Alpine Spruce you get a wonderfully round bass and
treble that just stand up and sing like a choir. This
guitar is very responsive it seems to give but what you
put in two-fold. Made for El McMeen (another Jersey boy)
you know it can handle low tunings and celtic music, but
it also screams on the blues and mixes nice when strummed.
Here's a super Tippin" - Paul H.
