My new signature archtop!

AndreasOberg

Have a look at this beautiful archtop in L-5 style made by Ari-Jukka Luomaranta, AJL guitars from Finland.

Blond flamed maple body with a floating pick-up and a hidden volume control (try to see if you can find it;)
It's almost as loud acoustically as a gypsy guitar..

I'll bring this one to Samois if you want to have a closer look at it

Best Regards
Andreas

Andreas,

Beautiful guitar! My guess is that the volume control is hidden under the edge of the pickguard. If I'm correct do I win a prize?

Beautifull looking guitar.

Will AJL have a stand at Samois this year?

Andreas, is this a custom model for you or will AJL be making more archtops? Great looking Jazz box though.

Djangolin, you have won a free ticket to a guided tour @ the AJL factory in Northern Finland. Unfortunately we can't pay for your plane ticket Just joking :roll:

To answers Caleb's question:
AJL will be starting making archtops on regular basis and the guitar on the picture is my signature L-5 model. This one will be pretty expensive to order because of the flamed maple but AJL will also be taking orders for similar looking archtops made of other woods.

Best regards
Andreas

What, no Floyd Rose? It looks like my grandpa's guitar!











Just kidding! It's a great looking guitar.
