We recently shipped out an Adirondack top and bracewood to a customer in Spain, and he responded so enthusiastically that we thought we would post his response on the blog. As we mention on the website, we take quality and attention to detail very seriously at Old Standard, so we're always happy to get feedback like this. Thanks to luthier John Evans for the kind words!
"Great wood! I jointed the tops today. They are fantastic and the brace wood is really hard and is split properly down the grain. I appreciate what you guys are doing! You are keeping the real origins of good AMERICAN guitar making alive! Rave on! This Adirondack knocks spots off the European Spruce and that comes from an English (i.e. European) guy!"

New Pics
Here is one of the standouts from our latest batch of Collings Guitars. How much of a standout is it, you might ask? Well being a 12-fret kind of guy, John's decided it's a "keeper". Not to worry though, we've got a wide selection of guitars available that stack up to it quite nicely, including a recently added custom-built Merrill. Check out our "Instruments For Sale" page at http://www.adirondackspruce.com/ for more info.
