Product Description

Fan braced, Brazilian rosewood back and sides, spruce top, Elevated ebony fingerboard with bent top upper bout to increase playability over the body. Byers has done extensive research on guitar intonation (an improved compensation system applied to both the nut and the saddle). Greg Byers guitars have been played by the likes of David Russell and David Tanenbaum, "They have a deep warm tone in the bass and a melodious treble. I played many concerts with a Byers guitar ... "They are wonderful instruments." - David Russell. David Russell recorded two CD's using his Byers guitar." There's a real refinement to Byers' instruments - wonderfully fine craftsmanship and a beautiful sense of legato. They are incredible musical instruments and they're very, very even across the range." - David Tanenbaum. The finish is French polish and the bridge is a double hole tie bridge to increase string tension.
