AVAILABLE: 2015 Somogyi Diospyros

In the words of Ervin Somogyi:
THE DIOSPYROS GUITAR: THIS GUITAR’S BODY COMPRISES OF ABOUT FIVE HUNDRED INDIVIDUAL PIECES OF EBONY AND YELLOWHEART WOOD, PAINSTAKINGLY LINED WITH GREEN VENEER STRIPS AND FITTED IN WITH THE SURROUNDING SEGMENTS. ALL THE WORK HAS BEEN DONE BY HAND — AND YOU’RE RIGHT IN THINKING THAT IT TOOK FOREVER. DIOSPYROS IS THE LATIN NAME FOR EBONY WOOD, AND I COULD NOT THINK OF A BETTER NAME FOR THIS GUITAR. THE DESIGN ITSELF WAS SUGGESTED TO ME BY THE PAVING STONES IN A MEXICAN VILLAGE STREET.
