One of the greatest acoustic sounds I have ever heard is Stefan Grossman's Larson Brothers Prairie State and this loving recreation by UK Luthier Ralph Bown is one of the coolest acoustic guitars I have come across.

I absolutely love custom handmade guitars - the range of beautiful options is limited only by the player's imagination and a great deal of this openhearted approach to the design and voice of the steel string guitar can be attributed to The Larson Brothers as much as CF Martin and Orville Gibson.

Thank you very much to my friends at The Guitar Showroom for allowing me to borrow this exquisite instrument for this video. The guitar is for sale so if you're interested do get in touch and tell them I sent you

I'll see you in the next one, until then

stay tuned
