While we at Artisan Guitars try to be as objective as possible, we get attached to certain special guitars. This stunning OMS has quickly become a shop favorite and with good reason.
Often times we come across guitars that almost look too gorgeous to play. But, when it comes to Maccasar Ebony, you just won’t be able to help yourself. Macassar Ebony boasts a lot of presence with a broad dynamic range. It has a strong bass, lower mids, and incredible sustain. When coupled with a Bearclaw Italian Spruce top, there is a significant amount of sweet, crisp, and bright tone. Each note carries with complexity and richness.
Fingerstyle players will appreciate the ease of articulation across the entire fretboard, while flatpickers will appreciate the ample headroom and ability to be played a bit harder without a hint of breaking up. Dana has built a versatile workhorse that plays like dream and is very comfortable for lounging while sounding like a guitar much larger.
