He is finishing up a new cd at the Sonic Edge Studio in Denver that features this guitar and the NoName maple jumbo. Clay’s cd will be out this spring, and I will post its release here. Can’t wait.

I have not built a Rosewood Dreadnaught since my first guitar in 1999 and it was hugely trans-formative and magical. This new guitar is too.

110% Dreadnaught!

It is patterned after a 1915 Washburn parlor guitar given to me a few years ago by a good friend. The Hitch Hicker has a 21 3/4″ scale and an overall length of 33″. The acoustic qualities of this guitar include typical NoName projection and evenness. It has such a complete sound and dynamic range for such a small body, lending itself to be a perfect travel guitar. The mold for the Hitch Hiker is number twelve for NoName Guitars. I’ve built a total of fourteen distinct models now, and I can custom-build any guitar to meet your needs and spark your inspiration. Check out the pictures!

I have not found the bottom of its bottom-end yet. More pictures to come.

It is very special. The Philippine Acacia in the back and sides were hand delivered to me from the Philippines. It may be the best finger-style guitar I have built because it is so even, and so sensitive. For sure, come by and try it out.
