I build only performance-level instruments (no student models). In the last 30 years I have also built 7, 8 and 10 string models, and though my standard scale length is currently 655mm., I have varied that from as short as 645mm to as long as 665mm. All my guitars come with a CALTON custom-fitted fiberglass case.
SCALE LENGTH: 655 mm (25.8 inches) or 650 mm (25.6 inches)	All Concert Classical guitars have ebony fingerboard and body binding, a bridge of Rosewood, with bone/ebony tieblock, a neck of Spanish Cedar reinforced with Carbon Graphite, and a nut and saddle of bone. For the rest of the guitar... here are some of the more popular choices: Soundboard: Western Red Cedar or Sitka Spruce (or... German Spruce) Back and Sides: East Indian Rosewood (or... Brazilian Rosewood, Curly Maple, Curly Koa) Machine Heads: Sloane (Waverly), hand-made Bronze cast, ebony buttons	I create custom engraved inlay by request. All designs are original and no design is ever repeated. For many examples visit the INLAY GALLERY. • "Armrest" bevel on lower bout • Single cutaway • Fingerboard extensions • 7, 8 and 10 string models • Edging and / or soundhold mosaic bordered in various types of shell or stone
