From time to time we make special guitars for shows or we just fool around to develop new ideas.

Each of the guitars will have unique features, all based on and inspired by the common theme of «Alps and Homeland». Examples include colors that represent the region, traditional motifs, use of materials sourced in the Alps, and much more.

«36th anniversary» surround guitar with expanded Kasha-style bracing
We’ve been obsessed with this idea ever since we used it an acoustic bass for Thomas Stalder back in 2005, and it was first realized on a guitar with the Vals Quartzite Flattop in 2013. Not surprisingly, both instruments caused a bit of a stir, as their construction is totally new.
By moving the soundhole into the cutaway, we’re able to use the entire soundboard as a resonating surface, which gives the instruments an amazing tone. Additionally, the cutaway doesn’t take away from the body, as it leaves the entire back intact, leading to a powerful bass response. And yet, the fingerboard’s upper register is as easy to reach as it would be with a regular cutaway! We call it the «Soundhole Included Topcut.»
We also developed a new type of bracing for this guitar, based on Dr. Kasha’s «radial bracing» concept. The result in an incredibly balanced, warm, and intimate sounding guitar with tons of sustain. Putting the emphasis on surrounding the player with a cloud of sound, the guitar puts the personal sonic experience ahead of absolute projection - also thanks to its two small sound ports, which function as «monitors.» Similarly, we’re finding it to be an ideal guitar for carrying a song or a defining a mood.
