This American Archtop Collector Series 17" from Dale Unger is a true one-of-one - an entirely handmade instrument built from exceptional, visually striking tonewoods and tuned to perfection, note by note.

A luthier since 1978 and founder of American Archtop Guitars in Nazareth, PA, Dale has spent over 45 years designing and building instruments that are as inspiring to play as they are to behold. The archtop is his true passion, and it shows in every curve, every joint, every carefully voiced top. This particular Collector Series model is a standout even within his acclaimed body of work - balanced, clear, and deeply musical.

Dale builds each guitar as if it were his own. And with this one? You can feel it.
