This Thomas SJ50 is build with an awesome set of Quilted Sapele Mahogany and Moon Spruce. Extremely well build and has a grand phenomenal voice. Sweet, delicate tone, open and responsive.

This Thomas SJ50 is build with premium quilted Sapele Mahogany and Moon Spruce from the dense Spruce forests in the Italian Latemar region. Latemar is a relatively small but well-known mountain group in the Dolomites in northern Italy. Here, the old master luthiers Stradivari and Guarnieri got their extraordinary top wood. The insane depth of the quilted Sapeli Mahogany is breathtaking. Sapeli Mahogany has a stronger high-end and the overtones are more complex, making the tone less compact than Genuine Mahogany. Moon Spruce features exceptional stiffness together with low density, the foundation of a great guitar sound.

The basic structure of all Thomas Guitars, are made by employing the old Spanish method of using a solera mold. This classic construction mold locks in the neck angle and sets the height of the bridge. The unfinished neck is glued with the intended angle to the soundboard. Then the bent sides are glued with individual wooden blocks to the top, and finally the back is fitted. This method has great advantages both tonally and structurally and form the foundation of a guitar set up that prevents fret buzz and string slapping.

The SJ fits in between the OM and the Jumbo sized guitars and is prized for its ability to blend warmly with diverse ensembles. She is a rhythm guitar of choice for many makers of hit recordings of the 50s and 60s. When it comes to fingerstyle solo performances particularly with lower open tunings or and flatpicking this Small Jumbo model will definitely be the right choice. On top of that the soundbox bevel lets you play for hours when sitting down in the studio or at home. Awesome guitar! Soundsample on webpage.

Trades

We are happy to consider Trades towards the purchase of most of our instruments. Also we do acknowledge that, due to eg. investment costs and market changes, trades usually will not give you the highest return for your instruments. On the other hand trading has its advantages:

utilize the value of your current instrument immediately

purchase that special guitar that you've been searching for, before it's sold to someone else.

save on costs in time and money of advertising and selling an instrument yourself,

eliminate the frustration and potential loss associated with inconsiderate, untruthful and possibly unscrupulous 'buyers'.

We are good at valuing instruments and make every attempt to determine fair trade values.

Our focus is on developing and maintaining long term relationships with our customers, not on one single transaction. If you are considering a trade towards one of our instruments, please call us at (046) 4497124.

 

Layaway Program

A '90 days layaway' option is available on all new instruments. This is the easiest way to secure that one guitar you've been dreaming of! Simply make 3 non-refundable payments equal to 1/3 of the cost of one of our new instruments (link naar new).

 

Upgrade policy

The honors of this idea go to a customer of one of my well respected fellow guitar salesman. This customers came up with this brilliant idea and we decided to use it for our customers.

 

Idea:

At any time you can trade in a new of used instrument bought from us for a more expensive instrument for the same amount you bought it. There are three precondition:

You've bought him here

the instrument is located in greater or lesser degree in the same condition

you show us the original receipt

Example: John bought a Lowden 035 for € 5500 euro in December 2010. Three month later (or two years or even 15 years later for the matter) he decides that the beautiful Rozawood Diamond-28 in Brazilian Rosewood for € 8800 in our shop is his next guitar. He pays for this baby with his current O35 and adds € 3300 (8800 - 5500). It's as simple as that!

 

Conditions:

The Upgrade Policy applies only to the original owner!

Show us the original receipt of the instrument. When bought at a different store this policy is not applicable.

The instrument should be more or less the same condition as when you bought it! Light wear, very small dents or light scratches are no problem, but a broken neck, cracks and other big changes will affect the value.

The instrument which you trade it should be at least 10% more value with a minimum of € 500.

VAT, shipping and payment costs (Paypal or Credit Card Fees) are not part of the upgrade policy.

Consignment instruments are not eligible for the upgrade policy.

This upgrade policy applies only to guitars in our stock and not "Custom Order" or "Special Order" instruments. You can only upgrade one guitar a year.

 

Appraisals

Want to know the current value of your instruments? The instrument market is ever changing, tonewood scarcity and other market factors constantly alter the value of custom, boutique and vintage instruments. Diamond Guitars can tell you exactly what your instrument is worth.

Two types of appraisals are offered:

Alternatively you can contact us to speak with an associate about sending photos of your instrument. We will need 5-10 photos covering each area of the instrument [Front, back, headstock, tuners, neck joint, etc.]. From photos we can only provide a verbal/email appraisal.

Call to make payment for the appraisal fee.

Optionally, you may send us the instrument or make an appointment for a thorough physical inspection and a written estimate that is signed and dated on Diamond Guitar letterhead.

Diamond Guitars Maintenance Package

 

Oasis Digital Hygrometer  msrp 29,90

A guitar, or any other stringed musical instrument made of wood, is at risk of cracking when the relative humidity drops below 40%. The Oasis® Digital Hygrometer accurately measures relative humidity and can help you decide when to use your Oasis® Guitar Humidifier. Because relative humidity varies greatly, even inside your home, we recommend that you keep your hygrometer close to your instrument.

 

Oasis Guitar Humidfier  msrp 19,99

The body of Oasis® is made from a specially designed fabric that allows water vapor (but not water) to pass through it. As the vapor transmission takes place, a vacuum is created and Oasis® shrinks to compensate for the loss of water. By watching the Oasis® shrink, you can determine when it is ready for refill. When refilling, you don't have to guess when it is full. Simply unscrew the black cap, fill with water to the top of the container and replace the cap. Once sealed, the water tight container is your first line of defense against leaks. Humigel™, the super absorbent polymer crystals inside Oasis™, are your second line of defense. Humigel™ captures up to 500 times its weight in water in an absorbent gel matrix.polish cloth
