We are very pleased to offer this beautiful 2025 Dan Kellaway, the first Kellaway instrument we have had through GuitarCollection.com. Featuring a cedar top, ziricote back and sides, and an all-wood lattice bracing system, it offers a distinctive and refreshing take on the modern Australian lattice guitar.

Powerful, responsive, and full of sustain, with a large dynamic range and notes that bloom effortlessly. The sustain is especially impressive, almost enough that you could donate some to charity and still have plenty left over.

This 1976 Manuel Velazquez is a beautiful example from one of the great American makers of the 20th century. Featuring a spruce top and Indian rosewood back and sides, it comes from a particularly desirable period of Velazquez’s work.

Focused, clear, and deeply musical, with strong separation between voices and the warm, woody character that makes great Velazquez guitars so satisfying both under the ear and across the room.

My first encounter with the work of Chinese luthier Yan Lei left a very strong impression. This No. 69 features a spruce double top with Nomex core, Indian rosewood back and sides, a raised fingerboard, and an incredibly lightweight, responsive build.

Easy to play, deeply resonant, and remarkably alive in the hands, with a level of refinement and performance that competes easily with double tops at far higher price points.
