HARPING FOR ANDY...

I am in the process of crafting a new harp guitar for Andy McKee. I hope to deliver it to him by late January/February 2010. This is the first harp guitar I have made and it has been close to a year in planning, research and design. It is a VERY exciting commission!
Andy's harp guitar will have its own, proprietary body shape and many unique features. While inspired by the early 20th century Dyer and Knutsen harp guitars, this will truly be a contemporary instrument incorporating all of the modern physics and design features found on all of my guitars. The guitar neck will have a subtle 25.0" - 26.0" fan and the harp neck will have 6 sub bass strings with sharping levers for each string.

Things are progressing really well and the finish line is finally in sight! I have the photo studio booked on February 15th and expect Andy to pick up the guitar that same week, prior to heading out for many months of touring with it.
Photos and hopefully some video, will be up on the site 2-4 weeks after that.
Stay tuned….
