Giffin 12-String

This guitar was really a labour of love! Having been a 12-string freak since "Walk right in" by The Rooftop Singers in the early '60s and the wonderful sound of The Byrds - Roger Giffin knew that he had to make the ultimate electric 12 string. It had to have a neck that you could actually play on! It had to have a big, ringing, jangly sound - which meant a  hollow body.  A hollow body, though, usually meant unwanted feedback, so Giffin designed his uncoupled, isolated bridge mount, which effectively cut out almost all unwanted feedback while retaining the full hollow body sound. The neck is not too big, not too thin, the string spacing is accurate and comfortable...

MalinoskiArt Guitars Custom

"Today we accept that solid body electric guitars should be built about the same way as they were 60 years ago. I think this is a sad fact and it is my desire to give these wonderful instruments the respect they deserve by eliminating mass production techniques and mass production influenced design biases in favor of handcrafted individualism..."

Manndolins Acoustic Mandolins

Currently, Jonathan Mann is building three styles of acoustic mandolins; the A-7, the F-7 and the Two Point. All three incorporate a "neck-thru" (patent pending) construction technique. While at first glance most people think "how can that thing sound right when it has that big hunk of wood going through the body?" Well... the body is actually hollow and carved just like any other fine arched top/back instrument...

Manndolins Electric Mandolins

Jonathan Mann currently makes two main variations on the electric mandolin; the EM 4, 5 or 8 string - a hollow body electric, and the SEM 4 & 5 string - a solid body electric. The EM is a "morph" between a few popular body styles and is made of only the finest materials available. There are lots of available options for this mandolin. The SEM 4 & 5 string electrics are available with double or single cutaways. The SEM has a 3 piece maple neck thru, solid mahogany body with carved curly maple top and hand machined aluminum wrap around tailpiece. This is the ultimate mandolin for sustain!

Scharpach Slab (super-long acoustic bass)

The first SLAB Scharpach made was for Hans Theessink, probably the only famous, internationally successful Dutch Blues Player in the world. Later, Scharpach made another one for the well known songwriter in the Netherlands; Boudewijn de Groot. He liked the dark colored sound of the d-tuned guitar to fit his voice.

The played D-chord sounds one octave lower, when playing the E- finger setting in the first position, which gives the guitar an open tuning character.

William Jeffrey Jones Custom

William Jeffrey Jones Guitars evolved purely as the means to express the personal creative concepts and skills of acclaimed commercial sculptor, Jeffrey Jones. A working artist for over 25 years, Jeffrey has also been a guitarist for over 30. His woodworking experience from a very early age actually influenced his decisions to become a professional sculptor, so from there, building guitars was a simple extension of logic, driven by passion, experience, and the lifelong commitment to creative endeavor...
