Number 75
This is a guitar-body 10 string cittern with long scale, tuned DGDAD,
built on commission for Trevor Michael. The body is Indian rosewood
and the top is Engelman spruce. The arch top gives a LOT of
sustain and volume.
Construction features include the usual user-friendly bolt-on neck
and non-traditional bracing with one long bar and several cross
bars. The arching is quite high to give strength for all those
strings! The neck has a modern 2-way adjustable truss rod.
Decoration includes curly maple binding, Celtic knot pearl inlay,
and rosewood appointments. Gotoh mini tuners with plastic buttons
provide easy tuning and light weight. The finish is low-luster
gel varnish.
Trevor says he's very happy with it!
