3DMSteel-String Guitar

Samples / Specs

This is the latest of the steel string models.

I've always wanted to make a more classic fingerstyle guitar. The 3DM is more traditional in shape and in voice , with it's 16" body and its soundhole topside. A slightly deeper body retains the fuller sound of the 4 size and the percussiveness of the 2GS. A single smaller port on the upper shoulder keeps the player in the loop. The arm rest is a little different as well – it is cut directly into the corner of the lower bout without purfling casements. The typical armrest is normally supported under the top by a block that follows the armrest shape ostensibly narrowing the tops width by almost an inch. The Platform rim is wide enough to allow the thinner "bevelini" armrest to be cut in through the binding , but without the support block.
