Here we have a totally custom Concert guitar from Ed Claxton. This very guitar is featured on page 471 of the book Guitars, by David Schiller. Ed has built a reputation by building instruments with sumptuous tone, impeccable build quality and the finest materials. This guitar is no exception, it features some of the finest Brazilian Rosewood you will find with stunning grain and rich tone. It is accentuated by an incredible Sinker Redwood top that gives it a unique combination of power and warmth, This is very rare Redwood salvaged after more than 100 years at the bottom of the Big River near Mendocini California . It is thought to have originally grown high up on the ridge in conditions that make it very stiff and strong. This Sinker Redwood can be made thinner than typical Redwood and we can tell you the voice is astonishing. Between this most striking set of Brazilian Rosewood, vibrant Sinker Redwood top and the hands of Ed Claxton, this is a special concert guitar by one of the most sought after modern luthiers.
