2002 True North GA Ziricote/Redwood
Dennis Scannell incorporates a number of sophisticated and worthwhile design features into his guitars. The tapered/wedge body shape is something we love, it keeps the bass controlled and in balance on a larger guitar and also greatly enhances comfort. Dual graphite neck reinforcements, along with the truss rod, make for great stability when moving between tunings. On the outside you get precise and beautiful craftsmanship in every detail. The voice of this guitar is warm and very clear and in balance. Ziricote and Redwood combine beautifully to make this a superb fingerstyle guitar and very capable for altered tunings.

Add to Compare2006 Rick Turner Compass Rose, Indian Rosewood/Spruce
Rick Turner’s approach to flattop construction is, naturally, outside of the box. This 2006 Compass Rose is designed to maximize the resonance of the Spruce top, and that is achieved by an elevated fingerboard and neck that cantilevers out over the upper bout. The entire top is free to operate as a vibrating plate, and that results in added power, color, and projection. Additionally, the neck-body join is fully adjustable, meaning the Compass Rose’s setup will always be right where you need it. The body assembly boasts a gorgeous set of Indian Rosewood that is tied into the Spruce top with half herringbone trim. The bridge design harkens back to early romantic guitars with its elongated wings. An L.R. Baggs Lyric mic pickup has been installed which sounds frankly fabulous.

Over the years Joe Veillette has worked for a long list of star clients which include the likes of Dave Matthews, Jorma Kaukonen, David Lindley, Kaki King, Ani DiFranco and many others. Often his work included designing unique instruments to fit the needs of pro musicians. One of our alltime favorite designs of his is this Gryphon high-tuned 12 string. The Gryphon is a 18.5″ scale 12 string guitar tuned up to high D, an octave below normal guitar tuning. This gives the Gryphon a mandolin-like sound, though much more colorful and musical, yet it can be played like a regular guitar. Our first reaction was utter amazement at the lush tone and we can see this being extremely useful in many settings from stage to recording. This beauty is Koa and Sitka Spruce.

“I’m proud to have planted a seed with Joe Veillette to make a Terz instrument, and to see it come to fruition here is just wonderful. I’ve long been a fan of Terz guitars as I’m a songwriter and find inspiration in instruments with a unique voice. Tuned low, like a Baritone, or tuned high, like Joe’s Gryphon or this Terzilla, you are instantly inspired to do something new and that’s a powerful thing.” – Paul Heumiller
From the Veillette website: “The Veillette Terz 12 is a powerful and intriguing hybrid of many different concepts. Tuned up to the player’s choice of G or A, and strung with unison pairs, the Terz 12 blends the full, wide sound of a 12-string guitar with the clean shimmer of a mandolin or bouzouki thanks to the Mahogany back and sides and Sitka Spruce top. The sound of the higher tuning and shorter scale (21 7/8″) is powerful and complex – bursting with harmonics and ‘cut’, and perfect for layering over other guitars, doubling, or accompanying singers or instruments with a naturally higher range. With its fast, tight, and defined lower register and thick natural chorus, the Terz 12 also excels for solo fingerstyle playing, particularly for the adventurous guitarist seeking something beyond just another standard 6-string. “
