Model Eclipse
Selmer Style Petit Bouche
The Model Eclipse is patterned after the Selmer “Petite Bouche” model but with a 21st Century sound. It has remarkable sustain and is able to cut through bricks! The tone of the Model Eclipse is bright and clear, and the volume is guaranteed to please.
The sound port opens up the sound of this guitar and lets you hear the instrument better too. This model has a traditional string length of 26 3/8” (67 cm) but can be made with a 25 ½ length if preferred. The Model Manouche, with the large “D” shaped soundhole has a rich tone, and the Model Eclipse with its small oval soundhole has a bright tone. Because of this tone difference, they make a perfect pair! All LEHMANN GUITARS are custom made and unique. The models shown are just a few fine examples of Lehmann’s work.

Model Manouche
Grande Bouche
This guitar is patterned after the “Grande Bouche” model designed by Mario Maccaferri. Its distinctive outline and large “D” shaped soundhole lend this instrument a tone unique among steel string guitars. Both the top and the back are highly brace-arched which lends increased strength in order to balance the down pressure of the strings. It possesses the best qualities of both the flat top and arch top guitars—rich tone and great projection.

-
Indian Rosewood sides and back

AAA Grade Sitka spruce top

Ivoroid or tortoise shell bindings
