Crandall "Lisa"

Crandall "Lisa" guitar.  100% handmade and hand finished by Tom Crandall.  Originally built in 1998 and now back to us from the original owner.  The body shape is similar to a Martin M size with a 15 7/8" lower bout 11 1/4" upper bout and 3 7/8" depth.  The back is intense birds-eye maple hand selected from the finest Iowa stock.  Sides are flamed maple and the top is tight, even-grained Engelmann spruce selected for its lack of grain run-out.  The neck is three pieces of quarter sawn mahogany with thin maple strips between them.  Fingerboard and bridge are ebony.  Birds-eye maple peg-head overlay with Crandall banner inlay.  The bracing is Tom's own X-braced design, scalloped and tuned for the body style.  Nut width is 1 11/16" with a 24 3/4" scale length.  Tasteful cut-square inlays adorn the fingerboard and the 12-fret has a small parallelogram engraved with "Lisa."  The top and back have maple bindings with thin blue purflling lines.  The soundhole rosette is herringbone again with blue accents.
