C F Martin Custom Shop 00-14F Flamed Koa Steel String Guitar, 2017

 C F Martin Custom Shop 00-14F Flamed Koa Steel String Guitar, 2017

This C F Martin Custom Shop 00-14F Flame Koa was built using woods and specifications selected by Grant MacNeill during a tour of the Martin plant during May 2017. For this guitar, Grant selected a 00 body design and a flamed Koa back and side Set #6. The torrefied top was specifically chosen from a large pile by Grant, with wide grain to ensure that it was responsive for a light finger picking style.

 Morgan OM Maple Natural, 1997

Here we have a Morgan OM Maple with clear gloss natural lacquer finish built during 1997, featuring a Sitka Spruce top and Flamed Maple for the sides and back. Morgan guitars are built in David Iannone’s shop in North Vancouver, British Columbia. Iannone has been building on his own since 1985, following an apprenticeship with Jean Larrivee. Many now-prominent Canadian builders learned and developed their skills in Larrivee’s shops in Toronto, Victoria and Vancouver.
