Tom Bill explains that in building the Genesis guitars he uses an intricate bracing system to produce a full spectrum sound that leaps from the guitar, that you can't say this guitar is loud so much as you can say it projects, not vibrates but responds. I say have the defibrillator on hand. This guitar is that amazing.

Back and sides are of AAA Brazilian Rosewood - nice, straight grained annd quarter-sawn. Jamie says the wood reminds him of 1930's vintage Martins. Who am I to disagree? The top is master grade Adirondack spruce, complimented with a Pauua shell border. Binding is East Indian Rosewood. Bridge is Brazilian Rosewood, Fingerboard is Madagascar Rosewood. Gotoh tuners with gold buttons. Nice.

Kauri Wood and Laurie Williams - New Zealand's gifts to luthiery.
This baby's got back! Back and sides are of flamed ancient Kauri -30,000 or so years old, but who's counting. Top and sides are of modern Kauri, which in and of itself is pretty darn old and getting pretty darn rare. Binding is Taraire, and purfling is tulip wood. The tuners - Gotoh 510's of burnished brass.
I ordered this before Laurie initiated a $900 upcharge for the Kauri top. At the Special Price, this guitar is about $1900 less than an identical guitar ordered today, before consideration of duty assessment. |

Tui
New - 2005
|
$7,000.00 Now: $6,300.00
|
Laurie Williams describes this guitar as having well rounded bass and excellent balance and sustain. I fully agree. Plus, the guitar looks great and sounds even better!
The Tui model has a lower bout of 15 3/4's inches. Back and sides are flamed ancient Kauri, top is Special grade Kauri of the more recent variety. Headstock is Ancient Kauri as is the neck. Binding is Taraire, purfling is Tulip wood. Gotoh 510 tunders out of burnish brass. Armitage humidity control hard shell case.
This guitar is priced less than current replacement on Laurie's website only becuase the Kauri top has become a $900 upgrade since this guitar was delivered.
