Bryan Galloup Solstice

Up for sale is this Bryan Galloup Solstice. It features:

  • Brazilian rosewood back/sides
  • Spruce top
  • Solstice 15.5" body
  • Custom MOP "Shark" inlays
  • Brazilian bevel
  • MOP rosette
  • Waverly tuners
  • 1 and 3/4" nut, 25 and 3/8" scale
Here's my first guitar in the shop from Bryan Galloup. This guitar truly excels at fingerstyle, and it has a very precise, clear voice. The Brazilian lends a bell-like resonance with well-shaped bass. The custom appointments on this guitar are just gorgeous, from the fretboard inlays, to the backstrip, to the end wedge. Comes with original TKL case.

Cosmetically, this guitar is in good condition. There are a couple of tiny spots of finish checking on the top, and there are also a few light impressions on the top that I couldn't photograph. There are several areas of faint finish flaking, with a couple of examples pictured. Otherwise it only has minor signs of handling.

Serial #: 0511
 
Hate the inlay....otherwise probably a killer guitar. Though with the use of Brazilian Rosewood I shudder at what that must have cost.

I don't hate the inlay, although, I would prefer something that looks a little less massive. The sharks just look like blobs until you get closer.

Like denverdave, I would probably go into sticker shock when I saw the price.
 
Nice guitar, but the inlay is a bit ostentatious for me. It's also just not my preferred body style. Would love to try it out though.
 
The guitar was very nice...had slight delay in responding as I was taken away by some other curves
