Fresh Sheet – Jazz Nylon

This handsome instrument is the first nylon string guitar built in some time. The chocolate brown Western Red Cedar soundboard gives it a rich, breathy tone. The spectacular back and sides are made of cocobolo, framed by Indian rosewood binding. The headplate and the tie block are accented by amboyna burl veneer, and the Waverly tuners with snakewood buttons tie in beautifully with the gold and red theme of the guitar.

About Shelley Park

Shelley’s craftsmanship and deep appreciation for the subtleties and qualities of fine wood, combined with her affinity for acoustic music led her naturally to a career in lutherie. Her love of the music of Django Reinhardt further focused her lutherie skills, constructing guitars based on the original designs of Mario Maccaferri and the Selmer Company of France. Shelley D. Park has now been building fine guitars in Vancouver, British Columbia since 1991. Shelley also brings a wealth of listening and playing experience to her craft. She played rhythm guitar in the popular gypsy jazz ensemble Pearl Django for 6 years, and has had a long and intimate connection to the classic Selmer guitar sound. Shelley’s exquisite craftmanship and attention to detail are reflected in every instrument she builds.
