The new Art & Lutherie family draws inspiration from the classic American Western guitars of the early 1900s. Handcrafted in the small town of Princeville, Canada, 95% of the woods used are North American Sitka Spruce, Silver Leaf Maple, and Wild Cherry.
No trees are felled to build an Art & Lutherie guitar; only trees that have fallen naturally are used, typically hundreds of years old. The factory is powered by hydroelectricity, as environmental consideration is paramount to Art & Lutherie.
Art & Lutherie's vision is to deliver visually appealing guitars of the highest quality, with a big sound and a price tag that ordinary musicians can afford.
The Roadhouse series is a Parlor model, an iconic Blues guitar with a big sound in a compact format, fantastic playing comfort, and it truly is a perfect travel companion due to its petite size. The Roadhouse is available with or without a built-in microphone system.
