Renowned concert artist David Russell purchased this magnificent classical guitar directly from Greg Byers. Guitars International is honored now to offer this one owner instrument to our customers - comes with a provenance written and signed by David Russell.

Possessing as they do even stronger fundamental tones, greater sustain, evenness and projection than Byers' previous concert guitars, Greg Byers' innovative double fan, all wood, lattice braced guitars represent a further refinement to his classically beautiful traditional musical sound.

An American classic, the Byers guitars that we have been privileged to offer have had a sparkle and focus which are quite special. One of only a few American makers to achieve international acclaim, Greg Byers handcrafts a concert guitar which is unusually responsive to a player's every artistic demand. His guitars possess outstanding power, separation, evenness, and clarity, as well as exceptionally accurate intonation, and superb workmanship. They also have one of the easiest, most comfortable neck and action set ups around. Concert guitars of great power, beauty and projection, they have rich colorful very solid trebles (including an unusually quick, singing first string), deep 'cello like basses, and a clean, warm, dark sound overall.
