Dave picked up his new Clyst as a companion for his Torridge.
We made this Tamar for Jeff in Vermont,
It’s an 015 model with abalone purfling and fretboard inlays, bound fingerboard and head veneer,
Figured mahogany top, back and sides
and gold Schaller tuners. Jeff got in touch – “The Tamar arrived today. More than I expected…beautiful sound.”
We made this nylon strung Cherry for Steve in Dorset, it’s one of the smallest six-strings in our range with a 472 mm scale and tuned A to A. With a European spruce top
And English walnut back and sides.
To give you an idea of scale here’s a photo of it with Coda’s new baritone Tavy!
The rosewood Tavy has a 678 mm scale and is tuned C to C with a set of 14s.
A more standard rosewood Lamorna here that Andy’s just dropped off to Project Music in Exeter.
Tim came down from Worthing for a tweak of his nineteen-nineties Tavy and his nineteen-seventies Manson Kestrel.
Finally this month, amongst other repairs, this unusual Japanese Strat needed a set-up and a few adjustments to get it playing comfortably.
