AUSTRALIA'S #1 ACOUSTIC GUITAR SPECIALIST
AUSTRALIA'S #1 ACOUSTIC GUITAR SPECIALIST
CON1766
Available at Acoustic Centre Melbourne
For nearly 40 years, Phil Carson Crickmore has created instruments for people who appreciate the difference between a guitar that is hand-crafted and one that is manufactured. His work as a master luthier is internationally known and respected, and he continues to refine his techniques and knowledge in the pursuit of great instrument-making from his workshop in Castlemaine, Victoria. We are honoured to stock these world-class instruments, constructed by hand in our own backyard.
This stunning, handmade Weissenborn was built by Phil as a showpiece for the Melbourne Guitar Makers Show in 2016, and has been living in a case in Phil's workshop ever since! It's incredibly highly-specced out, with tightly-grained Sitka Spruce top, lightly-figured old-growth Tasmanian Blackwood back and sides, Satin Box binding, a flawless hand-cut Satin Box and Blackwood rosette, and Schaller Grandtune Gold machine heads. The real showstopper though is the hand-buffed ultra-light sunburst finish, which highlights the beautiful timbers and looks spectacular! The fretboard and bridge are finest Honduran Rosewood, with traditional and subtle Weissenborn abalone inlays.
This is a top-shelf handmade Weissenborn, with jaw-dropping tone - it's airy, light and clear, with sensational harmonic complexity and a huge amount of volume. It really needs to be heard to be believed! Another incredible build from one of Australia's master luthiers.

We endeavour to show the actual instrument in stock whenever possible, but the guitar in stock may differ slightly from the one shown on our website. Materials used can look different from guitar to guitar, including timber grain and colour, parts colours and finishing. If an instrument is a one-of-a-kind or preowned guitar, the picture will always be of the actual guitar in stock, but production models may have slight variations to the picture shown.
If you're after a particular look, feel free to email us at info@acousticcentre.com.au or send us a message through our chat service to request photos of the actual guitar in stock. We are more than happy to send through pictures of all in-stock guitars, to make your choice easier.
Please note that returns will not be accepted for variations in timber grain / colouring, finish variations and parts colouring, unless there is a fault with the instrument. If you have any questions at all regarding an instrument's appearance, just drop us a line - we're always happy to send photos, and if we have more than one instrument in stock you'll be able to choose the exact guitar that you receive!
