Wow: custom UPSIDE-DOWN GUITAR from Dowina!
Big thank you to all at Dowina Guitars for agreeing to make this mind-bending jumbo model for our left handed customer.
Look closely at the photos.Its a right handed guitar but with the pickup & cutaway on the opposite side.
The owner plays right handed guitars held as left handed, without changing the strings around.
Just like this, except with preamp controls and cutaway where they’re needed.
Dowina Chardonnay JCE custom.

From the Dowina Guitars time travel series ,this is the Daydream GD.
Such a lively & responsive guitar in a size similar to classical or ‘OM’.
With selected Swiss moon spruce and the most underrated of tonewoods for back and sides - mahogany.
A beautiful vintage semi gloss finish on the time travel series must be doing something to contribute to their great tone!
Available now €1650 including bag.

EASTMAN WIDE-NUT 300 series mandolins are back!
Being a 30mm rather than 28mm nut width, these feel great to play if your hands or fingers get too bunched up on the standard size neck on most bluegrass style mandolins.
Not only that , they sound great with soundboards upgraded to Adirondack spruce!
