Montane 7 – Black Cherry Myrtle

The Front of the Guitar Body

Montane 7 – Black Cherry Myrtle

This 7 string guitar features an Oregon Myrtle top with a custom black to red/purple to natural fade. It has a deep forearm carve with an African Blackwood and Koa detail that fades in and out over the contour.

A beautiful piece of Black Limba completes the body, with lots of smooth curves and rounded edges to make it extra comfy to play. The body is finished with an oil/wax finish for a smooth, natural feel.

The Limba contributes to the light weight of this instrument, coming in at just 7 lbs.

The Ziricote fretboard pairs beautifully with the Myrtle and has a majestic landscape pattern, while the Evo gold frets give it even more class.

The asymmetrical neck shape is comfortable and smooth, which makes it easy to shred. No sticky neck here, the neck is finished with a light tung oil finish to keep it nice and slick.

Everyone who has tried out one of my guitars has commented about how good the neck feels!

With the combination of the lower horn shape and the seamless neck heel carving, you’ll have effortless access to the upper frets

The guitar is finished off with a custom myrtle wood truss rod cover and a control cavity cover that matches the body, which is held in place by magnets.
