Healdsburg Guitar Festival Berkowitz Guitars will be attending the 2009 Healdsburg Guitar Festival. Peter Janson will be performing our miniconcert.

Miki Gakki Musical Instruments, Ltd. Japan of Osaka has commissioned what is to become the Berkowitz D6, a fingerstyle dreadnought guitar. The instrument is voiced with the same balance and presentation you've come to expect from Berkowitz Guitars. The waist has been moved toward the neck, the upper bout is smaller than many, resulting in a slightly deeper waist and an instrument that balances comfortably on the body. Coming in June 2009.

Berkowitz Guitars is also introducing the new JB-28FF, a fan-fret (multi-scale) baritone guitar with a sweep of 27.5"-28.75," and designed to be tuned B-B or C-C. Photos coming soon!

Acoustic Music Company Ltd. of Brighton is now our exclusive UK Dealer. Will be receiving a J6 Wedge in Western Red Cedar and East Indian Rosewood, in late March 2009. They recently sold the F6 German/Ziracote guitar that we displayed at the Montreal Guitar Show. Welcome, Trevor!

Acoustic Music in Guilford, CT has the 2008 F6-C Montreal Show Guitar in German Spruce and Madagascar Rosewood.

Additionally, a JB-28CW in German spruce and Sapele, cutaway, wedge body, also built for the Montreal Guitar Show, is available directly from Berkowitz Guitars
