SOLD - 2006 Charis Acoustics Dream Series SJ Cutaway - SJ Acoustic Guitar

We could hardly wait for the first guitars of this Dream Series to arrive but it was well worth it. We gave Bill Wise license to use the absolute finest materials and collaborated on appointments that would allow the natural beauty of the woods to shine through. It is a gross understatement to say that we are thrilled with the results. This guitar is spectacular, the luscious voice and sweet overtones of Bill's guitars are taken to new heights on this series. And the unique Makore wood trim gives it character. The pictures describe the beauty much more eloquently then we could so we invite you to behold the Charis Dream Series.

Dream Guitars Player's Review:
"For #2 of this series we requested a Red Cedar top, which in the hands of Bill Wise adds a sweetness and articulate warmth to the instrument. Each guitar in the series features the stunning Makore appointments, including the gorgeous burl rosettes. The old growth Brazilian set here is again fabulous and perfectly quarter-sawn. It's wonderful for me to have both this and the German Spruce topped instrument at the same time. You can really hear and feel what each wood offers. This one in Cedar is refined and balanced with warmth and fullness on top of the Brazilian charm. Soul food for sure..." - Paul Heumiller

Another Satisfied Dream Guitars Customer:
"Last night I wrote down all 42 solid wood acoustic guitars I have owned since 1982, what I liked and didn't, why I moved on, and any that I missed having. Next to the SJT I wrote one word: perfect. They will bury me with this one. It's not a guitar, it's a piano." - Satisfied Customer
