New Guitars! Lend Me Your Ears!
You know that feeling when you’ve been waiting ages for something, and then it finally arrives, and it’s even better than you expected? That’s exactly how we feel about Crafter guitars landing at Musicmaker.
For those not yet acquainted with Crafter, let’s take a little trip through time. Born in 1972 in South Korea, Crafter started as a small workshop crafting classical guitars under the name ‘Sungeum,’ which translates to ‘accomplishing the sound’ (very appropriate, right?). Before long, their reputation for top-notch craftsmanship spread beyond South Korea, and by the late ‘80s, they’d rebranded as Crafter, setting their sights on the global stage. Today, they’re a force to be reckoned with in the acoustic world, producing guitars that blend old-school hand-built quality with modern innovation.
And now, the moment we’ve all been waiting for – let’s talk about some of the standout Crafter guitars we have in store!
Crafter HT-100/OP.VS Dreadnought - Vintage Sunburst
First up, we’ve got the HT-100/OP.VS – a name that might sound like a spaceship model, but trust us, this dreadnought is all about earthy, soulful tone. With its powerful projection and rich resonance, this is the kind of guitar that makes you want to strum big, bold chords all night long.
The solid spruce top ensures clarity and brightness, while the mahogany back and sides bring in that deep, woody warmth. The Vintage Sunburst finish? A total stunner. It’s like stepping into a time machine and emerging in a smoky ‘70s folk club, ready to take the stage. Whether you’re a seasoned player or just starting out, this dreadnought is as reliable as they come – a true workhorse with a touch of vintage magic.
Crafter NOBLE VTG Electro-Acoustic Cutaway - Flame Maple
Now, if you like your guitars with a bit of flash and fire, the Crafter NOBLE VTG Electro-Acoustic is here to steal the show. Featuring an eye-catching flame maple body, this beauty doesn’t just look incredible – it sings like a dream.
The maple construction gives it a bright, crisp tone that cuts through the mix with clarity, making it an ideal choice for fingerstyle players and singer-songwriters alike. The cutaway body lets you reach those higher frets with ease (because why should lead guitarists have all the fun?), and with its built-in electronics, you’re ready to plug in and perform at a moment’s notice. The NOBLE VTG is ready to make you sound like royalty.
Crafter GAE 7/N Grand Auditorium Cutaway - Natural
Last, but absolutely not least, we’ve got the Crafter GAE 7/N Grand Auditorium – a true all-rounder that’s ready for anything. This model is a Grand Auditorium shape, which means it’s slightly smaller than a dreadnought but still packs a serious punch when it comes to sound.
The solid spruce top paired with mahogany back and sides gives it a rich, full-bodied tone that’s versatile enough for anything from delicate fingerpicking to full-on rhythmic strumming. The cutaway design ensures easy access to the higher frets, so whether you’re playing intricate solos or just want to hit that high note in your favourite ballad, this guitar’s got your back. And with its natural finish, it’s as classic and elegant as they come – no frills, just pure, unfiltered beauty.
