2011 Ryan Signature Series Nightingale Grand Soloist Brazilian/Italian
Here we have a mindblowingly beautiful 2011 Ryan Signature Series Nightingale Grand Soloist with premium dark Brazilian Rosewood and Italian Spruce. Add to that the Fluted Arm Bevel, custom Abalone Rosette and Kevin’s renowned EO Bracing and you have an instrument you won’t want to take your eyes away from!
The bass response on this guitar is phenomenal, with all the clarity and sparkle that we look for in a high end fingerstyle instrument. It has a breadth and depth of tone that we rarely see, and the low end has an almost untamed nature about it that leads you to explore unknown passages and possibilities. It’s for instruments like this that we began this company, and we look forward to hearing your thoughts!

This Nightingale Solist by Kevin Ryan is an absolute knock out. The Brazilian Rosewood Kevin used for the back and sides is stunningly figured and the Alpine spruce top is super tightly grained with great silking, so you know it came from a hand-split billet. Tonally this guitar hits all the right spots: The Brazilian and Alpine Spruce give this guitar a great bottom end with a slight reverb quality, while the trebles remain full and present. It’s a fingerpickers dream, with a perfectly balanced voice and ideal neck profile, but really loves the pick as well!
