Savoy is the culmination of Blackbird's focus on making compact instruments with big voices and with its lush vintage tone, this acoustic is without equal for its size. The small body 'O' size acoustic is crafted of 'lighter-than-spruce Ekoa® linen fiber composite. The one-piece body is lightweight, durable, and weather stable, so you can take your Savoy anywhere. With a full size voice, playability and scale length, it still fits in the included ¾ soft case. As a 12-fret guitar, Savoy is both compact and places the bridge in the ‘sweet spot’ of the lower bout but also offers you full fretboard access via the unique Blackbird ‘dual’ cutaway— the back is sculpted away for access to the highest frets. Finally Savoy features Blackbird's proprietary hollow neck and head sound chamber. Learn More

The D-28 Modern Deluxe is a new take on Martin Vintage. This guitar is packed with custom features and modern technology that you have to see, feel, and hear for yourself. The vintage appointments include a Sitka spruce Vintage Tone System (VTS) top, a dovetail neck joint, and natural protein glue construction that give it the rich, fully aged Martin tone that has inspired generations. The look is unlike anything in our production line to date with European flamed maple binding, stylish gold frets, gold open-gear tuners, and a unique 1930s style script logo inlaid in pearl on the headstock. Some ultra-modern features include a titanium truss rod, Liquidmetal® bridge pins with red dots, and a composite carbon fiber bridgeplate that boosts volume without adding weight. And we’ve included a new neck shape that is slightly asymmetrical for maximum hand comfort up and down the fretboard. This guitar is anything but standard. Learn More

Please note that Rainsong has closed it's doors so once the current stock sells out we will not have any more new Rainsongs available. RainSong Graphite Guitars, the premier builder of Carbon/Graphite acoustic guitars, is excited to introduce Vintage and Nashville featuring the new Soundboard Fusion Technology (SFT). To combine the stability and robustness of carbon fiber with the traditional aesthetics of wood, RainSong has developed SFT: Soundboard Fusion Technology. After careful experimentation, we are able to fuse a thin spruce soundboard and a unidirectional pre-impregnated carbon in a single molding step. The resulting SFT soundboard is a composite matrix that resonates as a single unit, like a solid wood soundboard. The physical properties of the carbon fiber far exceed those of the thin wood. Hence the SFT soundboard maintains the imperviousness to humidity and temperature of carbon fiber. An SFT soundboard delivers rich carbon sound colored by wood. Perfect for those looking for a bulletproof guitar with tone that stays as close to their wood guitar as possible. There is no better stage than a 12-string to appreciate the qualities of all-graphite construction and Projection Tuned Layering. Rich, loud, clear and balanced, the All-Carbon sound is only heightened and made more intense by the complex tones, overtones and sympathetic overtones specific to a 12-string. The stability and strength of carbon-fiber compared to wood is very high. As a result, RainSong is able to set its twelve string action low and to design its neck to be thin, comfortable and easy-to-play without fear of structural failure due to the increased tension of six extra strings.
