Xaver Tobaccoburst Grand Concert
You've seen this Grand Concert before on this Blog, but here it is again with Mister Xaver Guitars himself, Gerry Gruber. This is one of my very favourite guitars ever--and with that Laskin style arm bevel, you wear this guitar rather than simply hold it. And how about that hat!! If I had a hat that cool--I would wear it all the time.

000-28K
Today I played a 000-15SM. I would probably have chosen it over my 000-17SM. But this is Koa on the top, back and sides. If you see one of these--buy it!!

Oskar Graf
Oskar has decided to retire. It is such a privilege to have met Oskar and get to play some of his instruments. All the best Oskar--wishing you a long, long retirement. But--betcha he will make more fine guitars.
