The Gibson Custom Shop Tamio Okuda CF-100E is a brand-new model, based on Tamio Okuda’s own original vintage 1950’s guitar. For those in Japan, Tamio needs no introduction.

The Taylor 812ce Grand Concert Cutaway is a cutaway version of the Grand Concert body design, and the 800 series has recently been revoiced to improve midrange warmth, bolder trebles, and increased dynamic range and volume (even without the pickups!). Featuring a Sitka Spruce top, Indian Rosewood back and sides, mahogany neck with ebony fingerboard, the Taylor 812ce is perfect for fingerstyle and its even, balanced tone fits easily into recordings.

Just in – a National Reso-Phonic Wocket Wooden Rocket! This mahogany laminate version has all the features of the very popular National Reso-Rocket, but with the extra warmth and growl wood provides.

The ‘Wocket’ designation is limited to a very, very few instruments. Steve James refers to his orginal prototype as the ‘Wocket’, and the first few production models are marked as ‘Wocket’ on the label, but subsequent models won’t carry that name on the label.

Guild F412 12 Strings

Tags: 12-string, Guild

“That is the best acoustic 12-string ever made.” said Grant as I sat strumming the Guild F412 in preparation for this review. It’s not everyday I hear such praise coming from Grant, nor is it a statement that is easily dismissed. With almost 40 years experience in guitar restoration and repair, Grant’s opinion on any guitar is something I try to pay close attention to.

Eastman makes some of the best-value jazz boxes around, and the Eastman AR 503 is a prime example. It plays and sounds great, and wouldn’t look out of place anywhere.
