❌ SOLD ❌ G W Barry Mod-C Ziricote Cutaway Steel String Guitar, 2018

On October 12, 2018 /

Here we have another “truly” handcrafted sonic masterpiece from the workshop of G.W. Barry, a ‘Mod-C Ziricote’. This instrument is passing through our shop on the way to its new owner, and it looks so good we wanted to share it. This is Mr. Barry’s Modified Concert model in Bear-claw Sitka Spruce and Ziricote. With a 15.5 in. lower bout width and 4.25 in. tail end depth the Mod-C bridges the gap between a standard OM and Dreadnought dimensions, while its curvaceous lines add an ergonomic comfort factor when in a seated playing position.

Blown Away by Look, Feel, Quality and Sound!

I’ve had the Deering Calico for a week now and I feel I needed to contact you again to let you know… every day I play, I’ m absolutely blown away by the look, feel, quality and sound of this thing! The love grows; I couldn’t have gotten it from a better person and shop. Truly, thank you very much!

Overall, great service and a great shop.

I picked up a Strat on Saturday, and was helped by Nevin. He was extremely helpful, and knowledgeable about the differences in the models. Once I made my selection, he set it up for me and showed me how to make minor adjustments myself.

Overall, great service and a great shop.

I Wish I Would Turn 60 Every Year!

I had the biggest surprise of my life for my birthday: the guitar of my dream (I tried in Madrid last October). I never thought it would be mine. It is an EXTRAORDINARY FLAMENCO GUITAR; the sound is just amazing.

Great Guitars – Great Service

There are not many feelings better than heading down to the 12th Fret with a pocketful of cash looking to buy (another) guitar. Although the store was fairly busy the staff were fantastic in offering help and advice. As I sat and auditioned ten or fifteen guitars no staff member passed by without asking if I needed help. Every question was answered with expertise. There was absolutely no sales pressure – take your time get the guitar that is right for you was the philosophy. Thanks Grant, Brian and Mike for sharing your knowledge and sage advice.
Finally, there is no better feeling than heading home from the 12th fret with a brand new Taylor 714ce professionally set up and ready to rock ‘n roll.
Thank you all
