Madagascan & Brazilian Tirga Beag




Here are few pictures of a Madagascan Rosewood Tirga Beag. The Headstock veneer and heel cap are reclaimed Brazilian Rosewood, beautiful stuff that just finishes this guitar nicely! The Soundboard is European Spruce with Indian Rosewood blinding and rippled Sycamore purfling.

A few words from the owner :
   'I'm really loving the guitar. The neck shape is great,
sometimes I get cramp with bar chords but haven't with
this guitar..
It's also so loud! Everytime I compare with another
guitar it blows them away, got my martin D15 back and
that sounds so bad now!..I've relegated it to slide
guitar.'
