This morning I’m posting a video of Ron Hatley of Ron’s Pickin’ Parlor, playing the small body guitar that was built for Marie. Thank you, Ron. It’s always a pleasure to visit with you and hear you play!

So, you might remember that Richard has been working on a small-body guitar that’s being made from the sign that hung in front of our business, Frames & Art by Kluttz. It hung there for decades, until one day it decided to fall. A few years ago, Richard made a full-size guitar from the same red mahogany sign, and the guitar became his personal instrument. So Richard wanted this small-body guitar to be mine, even though I really can’t play it. Maybe I’ll learn. He worked really hard on it, and he wanted it to be very special—and that it is!! Thank you, Richard, for all your hard work. The guitar is beautiful, and I will always cherish it. 💕

GUITAR IS FINISHED - SEE POST OF 3/15/22

Richard is working on another small-body guitar. This is a special guitar, as it is being built from wood that was originally the sign for Frames & Art by Kluttz, in Concord, NC. The sign hung outside the business for over 25 years. It is very rare red mahogany wood. Richard has installed abalone purfling and position markers, and flamed maple bindings and end piece. He is ready to pore fill the back and sides in preparation to spray the guitar. The neck will have a hand-rubbed finish. Pictures of the finished guitar will be posted when completed.

Richard is currently working on two small-body guitars. The one shown below will be for sale when it is completed. The body is made of Amazon Rosewood, which is considered a very rare wood. The bindings are made of figured maple, with white broken mother of pearl trim. The rosette is spalted wood with broken mother of pearl trim. The guitar features a beautiful wooden center bold zipper-patterned backstrip. The top is made of a very evenly tight grain Carpathian Spruce. The neck will be made of ribbon mahogany. Stay tuned for more pics!

Richard is currently working on an OM (small body) guitar with the sides being made of very rare red mahogany. The top is carpathian bear claw spruce. The rosette is made of walnut burl, with abalone trim. The bindings will be made of curly maple and abalone purfling. While this guitar is already spoken for, Richard is also building another OM guitar from amazon rosewood, which is also a rare exotic wood. The top will be carpathian spruce, but trims have yet to be determined. If interested, call Richard right away and pick out the trims you like best!
