Brook Okement 2011

This lovely guitar was made to my spec by the very talented people at Brook Guitars. Click a thumbnail for a closer view.

Outside the Brook workshop.

The guitar - among many others
on Simon's wall.

First look.
Cherry back and sides, mahogany neck;
ebony fingerboard and
initialed truss rod cover.

Closer look.
Sitka spruce cutaway top, ebony bridge and scratchplate; extra sound hole in side.

First touch.

The smile says it all!
