Sloped Shoulder Dreadnought Model Guitars


  The slope shouldered dreadnought has been around a long time, and for good reason; it's a great design!

I offer two versions of this time honored body style. The first is traditionally sized, with all the great bass response and superb rhythm tone that would be expected, yet it will never be out of place if asked to pick a little lead; a very versatile instrument.

The second offering in this style is my modified slope shouldered dreadnought. Originally conceived with the help of Miss Dale Ann Bradley, of "Dale Ann Bradley and Coon Creek" fame, it's been made smaller in the upper bout, with a slightly tighter waist area, all in the name of comfort.

While playing comfort was the primary motivator in the design, we've also taken extra steps to ensure that the tone and power were not adversely affected. By keeping the all important lower bout just about the same size as a traditional dreadnought, we've been able to achieve our goals of comfort with minimal compromises.
