M100 guitar

M 100

The M series guitar is a smaller size instrument with a 25" scale. I got this shape from George Morris when I took his basic class and it remains my personal favorite. Players like the shape, light weight and balanced tone this guitar yields.

This D 100 is about 16 1/2" at the lower bough with a 20" body length. The depth is 4 1/2" - 5" depending on the wood choice This new shape yeilds a strong base end and lots of volume while maintaining a nicely balanced tone. I also built this in a cutaway as seen in the pages that follow. I usually built the D 100 with a 25" string scale.

Ordering

Base prices for the various models listed above will give you an idea of what one of my guitars will cost. There are so many vaiables that figure into the building of a custom guitar, however, so the best way to get an accurate quote is to give me a call and just tell me what you want and I'll promptly work up a price for you with all the details for your guitar in writing. The quoted price will include a sturdy hardside case.

If you choose to place an order, and I hope you will, I ask that you return a signed copy of the the quote with a deposit of 1/2 the agreed price and I will put your guitar in my production schedule and let you know the approximate delivery date. As of right now, you can expect about a four to six month wait.

As I begin working on your guitar, I will keep you posted via e-mail on the progress of your guitar and send pictures of the building process.

The payment balance will be due when your guitar is complete and ready for pick-up or shipment. Your guitar will be promptly shipped upon receipt of the final payment.
