Comments: Our first Ciaran
McNally guitar has arrived and I could not be more pleasantly surprised! Ciaran McNally is definitely
a Luthier that you will be hearing much about in the future. While his
influences are obvious, Ciaran is quite a noteworthy builder in his
own right.
The craftsmanship on this guitar
is literally flawless. The lines flow gracefully throughout the instrument
and every detail is perfectly placed. The woods are premium grade plus,
and this is some of the nicest Irish Walnut I have seen.
I am just as taken with the
sound. It is warm and balanced with an airy and open mid-range. The
typical Irish woodiness is apparent but this guitar has an additional
depth that I find addictive. Ciaran has somehow managed to combine everything
I like about Irish guitars and offer it up it in one package with his
own twist.
We are offering this guitar
at a very special price. If you are considering this style of build,
you simply will not do better! I look forward to many more McNally guitars.
