Sound Pure's Take

Absolutely amazing in all aspects! This is Gerard's best work! The quality of craftsmanship, tone, and materials are absolutely the best of the best. You are looking at one of only 2 new Master Artists available. The value of this guitar will only go up. Did I mention this is one of the very last NEW Master Artists available in the world? Ever? Collectors and players beware!

From Melancon Guitars

The Master Artist Series by Gerard Melancon represents the pinnacle of his abilities as a luthier. These guitars are very limited in production because of the time and care taken in their construction. The woods used are from Gerard's private collection and have been hand picked and stored away over many years for use in this series. Each dealer may get 2 of these guitars a year maximum. When you hold one in your hands you will understand why this instrument is so special.
