Kunkel Diamond Jubilee / 16” Flat Top Acoustic Guitar

I have three levels of my Kunkel Guitars. They are: Heartland, Noble Heart and Lion Heart.
The Lion Heart is the high end of my line and always has a Heart Shaped Sound Hole. The Diamond Jubilee is an elaborate pattern and requires a great deal of hand work. I have only made a few of these guitars because they are very demanding. This one is the best of the best and is made of exceptionally beautiful Brazilian Rosewood and the finest Adirondack Spruce.
