Here is the 4th Generation design of my FT-16, forthwith to be known as

"The Penngrove"

This full sized guitar was my most popular type up until building for Eric Schoenberg. This guitar will please anyone, but I build it with the Singer/Songwriter in mind.


Serial #10330406 is made from Honduras Rosewood and Italian Spruce with Snakewood over maple bindings and purflings. Ebony fingerboard and bridge, Waverly tuners w/black pearl, 4 5/16 x 16 x 20  with 25 3/8 scale.  Very balanced (normal for me) with the tonal center focused in the mid to low range for warmth and vocal support.
