Douglass Scott, 2025

$12,000.00

Cedar / Wenge

Douglass Scott guitars have become some of the most sought-after traditional concert instruments in the world. With a multi-year waitlist and demand from top players globally, his instruments are celebrated for their ability to combine the warmth and lyricism of a great Spanish guitar with the power, clarity, and balance modern players expect.

This particular 2025 example, Scott’s 151st guitar, was built to Evan’s custom specifications and is a phenomenal illustration of his latest work. Despite being only a few days old, the guitar is already incredibly open, resonant, and powerful—a rare quality for a brand-new, traditionally braced instrument.

Sound & Playability

This guitar delivers extraordinary power and projection while maintaining that lush, lyrical Spanish sound that defines the best traditionally braced guitars. The low end is deep and supportive, the trebles are punchy yet refined, and the clarity across the entire register is simply outstanding.

The integrated ebony mini tornavoz helps balance the main air resonance, adding warmth and richness without sacrificing openness. And with Scott’s newer, slimmer C-shaped neck profile and low-action setup, playability is effortless.

Evan describes this instrument as having “unbelievable power and clarity—without sacrificing that beautiful Spanish sound.”

Condition

Brand new, only recently completed, still opening up beautifully.

For those seeking a modern, world-class concert guitar that blends warmth, power, and traditional tonal character, this is not to be missed.
