Comments:
This is a beautiful guitar by Douglass (they are all gorgeous).
There is Porthole with magnetic cover (warning? for those with a pacemaker…Douglass made me write that 🙂
The guitar has all of his bells and whistles featuring Back and Sides of Wenge (Millettia laurentii) – See my Tonewood Discussion for a further explanation of this gorgeous wood.
Douglass used Black Cherry for the veneers and bindings.
Sound Port w. Cover Sound port in upper bout with adjustable magnetic cover
Elevated Fingerboard
The guitar is complimented with Alessi tuning machines with Snakewood buttons.
Playing the guitar, I was immediately taken with her power. Her voice started to develop immediately, with the singing highs and the low gutty basses that everyone wants. Douglass is a master of guitar building, no doubt.

Media
Listening with high quality headphones or audio equipment is highly recommended including EQ manipulation, if possible. We record everything flat with just a touch of Reverb to relieve dryness. My goal is to record the guitar as realistically as is possible. I speak in the recordings, my thoughts about the guitar (and possibly other things?). My speaking also serves to give you my first impressions and to also give you a balance of the engineering (or lack thereof) versus the sound of the guitar. I simply do not have time to engineer much of anything. Thanks. Rich
Douglass does such incredible work. This is an absolutely beautiful guitar, sounding equally gorgeous.
MP3 Audio – 201114-2020 Douglass Scott 110 Spruce Wenge – it’s incredible how consistent Douglass is in his guitar building. This is another superb guitar that starts to sing and bellow. A little push and she came to serious life in my hands. Made me laugh it’s so good.
My Solo Book of sheet music is available here if you’re interested.
