"The Versatone"

The Versatone Made by David and me-

This guitar is made with reclaimed wood, it’s part of a group that I call “The art Stringed instruments “they are all made with more artistic input- the shape is dictated by the availability of sizes of bits of wood (of cuts and reclaimed wood in the studio at the time

The top and the Back of the guitar- made from a soundboard of a piano from the 1800 hundreds

The neck is from the piano (1800 hundreds) extremely hard Pine.

The sides- Indian Rosewood off cuts

Fingerboard old bit of Ebony.

The sound is fantastic! Active system And a Piazo bridge, great for Recording and live!

great dynamic range- warm, sweet, bright, aggreive and very melodic....!
