❌SOLD❌Marc Beneteau OM Cedar and Padauk, 2011

Tags: acoustic, Beneteau, cedar, independent luthiers, OM, steel string

This Marc Beneteau OM was built during 2011 at the Beneteau Guitars shop in St. Thomas, Ontario. Marc has been building since 1974, originally in Ottawa. He is largely self taught, though he’s taken inspiration from Jean Larrivee’s work. Many prominent Canadian builders worked directly for or with Larrivee, but Marc did not, instead taking cues from Larrivee’s influences from classical guitar building, which produces a result quite different from the Martin – Gibson building styles.

C F Martin D-28 Modern Deluxe Guitar

On May 9, 2019 /

The C F Martin D-28 has for many decades been one of the benchmarks for acoustic guitars, and the brand-new Martin D-28 Modern Deluxe brings new features to this venerable design. Originally introduced around 1911 as a large model for the Ditson company, the D-28 reappeared in the 1930s and has been in production ever since. There have been a number of changes over the years – notably, Brazilian Rosewood has not been used since the early 1970’s – but the core design is unchanged.
