At Woody's October NY workshop, a number of attendees asked questions about and played my guitar built by David Flammang. The guitar is a size 0 12-fret with koa back and sides. Mandolin Bros. just announced that it is now offering Flammang guitars. The December Vintage News (available at www.mandoweb.com) has a nice profile of David and photos of a couple of models it now has in stock. It also mentions that a number of artists who play Flammang guitars are planning to produce a CD in tribute to his instruments! I'd like to add that I really enjoyed the workshop and hope to attend another soon. Woody is a charming and talented teacher and player and the other pickers proved to be interesting and helpful comrades. IP: Logged |

Isn't it amazing that someone like Woody could be so humble and willing to promote our love of the guitar? Iv'e certainly been blessed by his help! I sometimes wonder if it's not because of his own experience with Rev Gary Davis. IP: Logged |

I played the Flammang EL35 at Mandolin Bros. over the holidays. Fit and finish were lovely. Very easy to play and comfortable. I play heavy pick blues but am venturing more into fingerstyle and I can see how appropriate this guitar would be. It just vibrated in your arms. A very resonant, clear, responsive little guitar. I wish Mr. Flammang all the best. Marc Durso IP: Logged |
