Comments: North Road Acoustics is a big find for us. They are making some of the finest acoustics out there, and right in our backyard. Top shelf woods, flawless craftsmanship, and artistic appointments are the standard at North Road. Check out his Rosette...gorgeous! The Flamed Maple neck has a fast and easy feel, and seems to add a bit of punch in the mids. I found this guitar particularly great for Jazz and Blues with excellent separation for single note playing. It also has a nice warm shimmer in the highs that is great for spacious chord work.
