Aganagi

Aganagi was a gift for a dear friend. From me, and his generous partner. It was from experiments with this guitar that I developed much of what would become my own personal style in guitar-making. The signature pattern rosette in amaranth and ivory-wood was conceived with it, inspired by indigenous pattern art and body-paint. Indigenous is its name, the Southern Cross, a constellation with deep meaning to its owners, portrayed in the headstock.

It features a Swiss Moon Spruce soundboard in a plantilla alike those of Santos Hernandez, coupled with Brazilian Mahogany for the back and sides, for a beautifully striking contrast. French polished soundboard, oil-base varnish elsewhere. Includes a unique alternative D profile on the neck that encourages adequate left hand grip, and that is very comfortable.
