Featuring a hand carved flame maple top, spruce back, and mahogany sides, the body is bound in mahogany on the top, back, and sides.
The flame maple neck with an ebony fingerboard is also bound by mahogany, and the mahogany binding goes all the way around the headstock.
Additional features include a nitro glossy finish, 24 frets, 25.5” scale length, and a arch top style neck joint.

Our small team of expert luthiers overseas build jazz arch top guitars and every detail of Reprise is drawn from that tradition.
