Flowers Guitars are the result of luthier, Gary Flowers' dedication to producing jazz and flattop guitars of the highest quality available, achieving a level of craftsmanship that is among the finest in the industry. Gary’s long experience as a player is evident in the great feel of his guitars. The fretwork and set-ups are truly exceptional. The neck features a non-compression type, adjustable truss rod and a reinforced neck extension (at body). Using only hand-selected, aged, European Spruce and Maple for the bodies and Eastern Hard Maple for the necks, Flowers Guitars are hand carved to achieve an amazingly balanced and powerfully voiced instrument.
Gary Built this incredible 16" Archtop for a very discerning jazz guitar player in 2000. Now at 26 years old, it has matured into an incredibly articulate and well rounded jazz box that will stand up to any of the other makers such as Benedetto or Campelonne. Gary uses only the highest quality materials and his craftsmanship is world class. The European Spruce top and European Maple back are hand carved and tap tuned to produce smooth and even notes in all registers. If you are looking for a jazz box that will knock your socks off, you will not be disappointed with this guitar.
