Thanks, David! The Diamond certainly has no shortage of overtones and with the incredible sustain the guitar has, they just swell up and ring on and on... and on!
Outstanding guitar! I met the McKnight's while at the Newport Guitar Festival in Miami last April and had the good fortune of being able to play a few of their wonderful guitars! I recall they used some kind of double honey-comb tops on some of their models that I had never seen before. Great job on "Waltz for Rebecca" by Al Petteway, by the way. I got to meet Al at the show too! :-) Thanks for the video Scott! -Derek
I've also had the pleasure and privilege to play this guitar. Mary and Tim bump design and craftsmanship to a level that is nothing less than luthiery art. If you haven't played a McKnight, you owe it to yourself to try one.
Not just a beautiful instrument but wonderful tone/sound.Pity the price is so high, although I can understand given the material's and craftsmanship that goes into it.
Nice playing on Al Pettway's a waltzfor rebecca also.
Scott, that is stunningly beautiful. Your playing, phrasing, and tone are spell binding. You certainly know what to do with overtones! Yowser.

Thanks guys! I enjoyed this guitar so much during the brief time that it was in my possession that I've decided I need to have one for myself!
My own McKnight guitar is now officially on order and should be complete in approximately 7,500 hours (yes, I'm counting)!
