Comments: A tribute to 51 years of building guitars, the Peak is a limited run of 51 guitars, 17 of which made it to the US. Both the master grade woods, and detailed inlay, are stellar! The sound offers as much detail as the craftsmanship. I really like the refined, even balance of this guitar. It has a sweet high end sparkle that is hard to find in smaller guitars. This would be an awesome songwriting guitar!
