Singing The Boxer with Jim Soldi (on his Bowen OM Adirondack/Brazilian Rosewood guitar), Arlen Roth who played this so many times with Simon & Garfunkel, the fabulous "Back to the Garden" band, and making a guest appearance, Paul Richards from the old Bowen & Richards days.
If you wonder how a Bowen sits in mix this video will give you a good example.
Performed at the George Bowen Master Guitar Summit on 3/15/2023.
Preparing for 2023 guitars. Expect to see Master Grade Alpine and Red (Adirondack) Spruce paired with Old Brazilian Rosewood, African Blackwood, AAAAA Koa, and possibly The Tree.
After selecting my woods, in this case a very, very stiff piece of old Adirondack Spruce from a friend's private reserve, it's time to thickness the tops and backs. This piece is headed for a guitar I'm making for an A list studio and touring professional. I'm honored to build a guitar for him.
