Introduced in 2003 and built at the Nashville Tennessee shop, the Gibson Les Paul Supreme is a high-end take on the classic design and features carved, highly figured Maple top and back. The construction of the Gibson Les Paul Supreme differs from the standard Les Paul though it uses the same basic materials as the Les Paul Custom. The carved top and back set are bookmatched, highly flamed Maple, on either side of a chambered Mahogany core

Introduced in 2013 at the winter NAMM show, the Godin Montreal Premiere HT has a thin trestle-braced arched top body and is ideal for jazz players. This Godin Montreal Premiere HT example is in very good, clean condition, dates to the first months of 2016 and was built at the Godin shops in La Patrie, Quebec with a mixture of domestic and imported woods. The top, back and sides are locally sourced Wild Cherry laminate with a Trestle or ML bracing system that supports and damps the body while reducing weight, and provides anchor points for the stop tailpiece.
Built by Cliff Fitch, this is a Fitch Masters Five bluegrass style five string banjo built during 2007 near Forth Worth, Texas.

Using the Mastertone 5-string concepts, the Fitch Masters Five features a figured Maple resonator covering a stained Maple rim.
Here we’re looking at a very early Guild S-300 with a bolt-on Maple neck, built in late 1976 before the switch to a set-neck design. The S-300 was an original design, moving away from the rather derivative ‘SG’ shaped S-100 though much of the hardware and wiring was shared.

The original MK model was designed by Pensa and Knopfler to create a guitar capable of sounding like the 1961 Strat and 1958 Les Paul Knopfler was using on stage, allowing him to use only one guitar.
Here we have the brand-new Fintan McEnroe MC18 F-style mandolin from Fintan McEnroe, working in Toronto but originally from Ballyjamesduff, County Cavan, Ireland. The ‘18’ in the name refers to the mandolin serial number and production sequence. This fine instrument was very recently finished, in August of 2023.
