John and his music have been a big part of our lives for over fifty years, and it was a real blow when he stopped performing a few years ago. He has now disposed of most of his guitars and asked me to help with his remaining two "professional" instruments. 

This one is an Oberon style but made using Maple rather than the usual Indian Rosewood, plus a cutaway.

It’s been John's main guitar since we made it for him in 2011 and it’s a sign of how much and how well it’s been played that nearly all the frets are worn the same amount, from top to bottom. I've never seen John use a capo.

It's in very good condition. There are some minor marks which we'll try and polish out, and it will be completely refretted.

Fitted with a Headway FEQ pickup.
