• Comments:

  Toni Müller has produced these modified sandwich-top guitars from about three years ago. Since then, their success is demonstrated by the large percentage of sales going to professional players like Aniello Desiderio, Sharon Isbin, Scott Tennant, Thomas Kirchhoff, Dale Kavanagh, Eden-Stell duo, Hubert Kappel and many more. The waiting list from the maker directly is now six years.
  They unquestionably have a strong, solid sound which can be shaped in terms of tonal variety and with a closeness to traditional tone character; more so it seems, than many guitars that are designed to be loud. The balance between bass, middle and treble is very good, as is the sustain, clarity and ease of playing; the action set-up for left-hand comfort is very good.
  This cedar version has a warm, rounded yet clear sound. Depth of bass comes from an air resonance around F# and with an important character that the bass notes hold well the bottom octave.
  So, here is make and model that is rapidly attracting attention from performers around the world. Our first was sold within hours of arrival. We hope to have one each year - but we'll see.
