Available at Acoustic Centre Melbourne

Hand-built in regional Victoria by master luthier David Worthy, the Vintage Model reflects decades of refined craftsmanship paired with a deep respect for traditional acoustic design. A Sitka spruce top matched with Indian rosewood back and sides delivers a warm, open voice with excellent balance, clarity and dynamic response, while the mahogany neck and ebony fingerboard and bridge provide a familiar, comfortable feel suited to fingerstyle and articulate flatpicking playing.

Originally conceived with distinctly old-world styling, the Vintage Model has evolved into a more expressive and visually striking instrument that blends classic proportions with tasteful modern appointments. Figured blackwood binding, a spalted maple rosette and Waverly open-back tuners with koa buttons lift the aesthetic, while hand-scalloped, individually tuned bracing and a carbon fibre-reinforced neck ensure long-term stability and tonal consistency, making it ideal for a player after a refined, contemporary example of Australian luthiery.
