Besides the beautiful Canadian Sitka top, this guitar is made with pre-historic, rare wood from New Zealand and I still have the certificate. If you have never heard of ancient Kauri wood:

This guitar is equipped with Buzz Feiten tuning which transforms guitar intonation to make the whole neck in tune, overcoming one of the greatest weaknesses of the instrument:
This instrument has been aging in temperature and humidity controlled environments since construction was completed in 2009.
The builder, David Freeman, has been professionally building guitars one at a time for decades, as well as running a luthier school. Many of his students are leading the world of guitar construction. He is also a leader in the rare and fine wood market, travelling the world to find the best woods for guitar construction. Unlike buying a Taylor or Gibson, if you have problems with one of David's guitars, you can email or call the builder and he will do what he can to help. Great guy.

Price is firm. No low balling. I'm not desperate to sell. This is a good deal. If you want to try it out, give me an email and we can set up a meeting at my place.
