USING FUTURE-FRIENDLY MATERIALS TO MAKE EXCELLENT NOISE
The future is important, so I've chosen to let character and sustainability drive my material selection. Exotic woods typically don’t make it into my builds, but I have used reclaimed piano parts, aluminum from vintage trailers, old growth wood from vintage homes and furniture, and more. One-of-a-kind, once-in-a-lifetime finds are standard fare in my shop. If you’re interested in a Stahman, get in touch with me to find out what interesting pieces I have available for your new guitar.

The Rhoda
Base Price $3500
Designed to bring the vibe of vintage catalog guitars into the modern day with impeccable playability, the Rhoda is a brace-free, lively performer. It's also the best-selling Stahman design.
With a scale length of 24.625", a 1.75" nut, and a neck that joins the body at the 12th fret, it's a comfortable and familiar instrument. Light and resonant, the hollow body won't weigh you down in the studio or on stage.
As with any Stahman guitar, stainless steel frets are standard equipment. The neck is mounted to the body using machine screws and threaded steel inserts. This results in a strong, reliable coupling, and makes many repairs and adjustments easier on your local luthier.

The Gracie
Base Price $3100
The Gracie is a stripped-down guitar that's been designed to get the very most from the beautiful reclaimed materials I search out. Its body is narrower than many guitars, which makes it possible to utilize pieces of wood that would otherwise be ignored in the search for acceptable sizes.
It's aesthetically reminiscent of a multitude of lap steels and antique parlor guitars, but with a bit of Western flair thrown in to create something completely unique in today's boutique guitar world.
Like the Rhoda, it has a 1.75" nut width and 24.625" scale length, but meets the body at the 14th fret. A single neck pickup is standard, but customization is possible with an additional bridge pickup, or even three pickups!
