Tobias Berg Shares Sneak Peek Photos of His Newest Guitar!
Swedish-born, German-based luthier Tobias Berg has just finished building another stunning guitar for GSI. Tobias is not only a great luthier but also a long-time friend whose guitars we’ve proudly represented for 20 years.
This latest instrument, numbered 149, features a gorgeous cedar top paired with a beautiful set of Indian rosewood for the back and sides. As we've said many times about this makers work, the guitar has a unique and bold aesthetic - the headshape, rosette and bridge reveal a fondness for traditional Japanese architecture which Tobias admires for its understated elegance in its usage of perfect lines and sharp edges. He has seamlessly and delicately integrated elements of this into his unique and beautiful design.
Tobias has been recently featured in one of our on-location video shoots with D'Addario, as well as in an article by Sjöbergs - one of the major Swedish manufacturers of workbenches and other wooden products.
Take a look at the sneak peek photos below, and let us know your thoughts. We can’t wait to hear this guitar sing!
