Richard Hoover calls the classic OM design the most sophisticated sounding steel string guitar that modern luthiery has achieved. SCGC's new OM Grand model is a bigger, lusher, louder sister to their extremely popular interpretation of the world renowned OM design. In comparison, the OM Grand embodies the same elegance, only in increased quantity of volume, projection and bass. This one has been upgraded with gorgeous European Spruce top for added power, and clarity. Learn More

Trenier Broway 17" Archtop From the builder: Once the design of the 16” guitar was worked out by the Gibson company in the late 1920‘s and expanded on by John D’Angelico shortly thereafter, a tone was achieved. It was a tone that was full, balanced, and powerful. This is a design worth exploring by any contemporary maker of guitars - parallel bracing, narrow f-holes closely spaced, eastern maple and adirondack spruce make for a shouty, robust tone, as fit for 4-to-the-bar comping as for Carl Kress-style chord melody. To my ear, the perfect blend of power and beauty. Learn More

Please note that New Old Stock guitars come with full factory warranty and have never been on display. This Grand Pacific model is the first of our round-shoulder dreadnoughts to feature back and sides of solid ovangkol, an African tonewood that shares rosewood’s warmth and brilliance with additional presence in the midrange. Topped with solid spruce, the AD17 serves up a blend of sparkle and clean low-end power, enhanced by V-Class bracing for greater volume, longer sustain, and a more in-tune sound. That seasoned, vintage-hued tone is reflected in this model’s strikingly classic look, with a natural top and a deep Urban Sienna color treatment for the ovangkol back and sides. Minimally decorated but finely crafted, the AD17 also features chamfered body edges, stained spruce edge trim, a three-ring rosette in Hawaiian koa, and a faux tortoiseshell pickguard. The 2.0 mil-thick matte body finish minimizes damping for unfettered resonance. It ships in a Taylor AeroCase. Learn More
