  • Comments: The ingenuity and originality displayed by Mike Donmoyer in his design is very inspiring. It is seldom a builder arrives on the scene with anything really new, let alone the a fresh and unique presentation such as this. The lines are crisp, and the nod to the deco school is elegant and exciting. This level of craftsmanship is amazing, particularly considering the challenges he executes (check out the bevel). The overall feel of this guitar makes it so fun to play. The neck is fast and easy, and the overall dynamic range is broad. This would make an excellent acoustic for a Jazz player, or someone looking for an alternative to a Jazz archtop, yet with more acoustic qualities. We are currently offering Donmoyer at a very introductory price range as these instruments are surely worth much more!
