Whittemore Archtops
Whittemore archtops – the “Kalamazoo” models – are known for the big fat throaty sound that is the hallmark of electric jazz guitar. Designed for amplified performance, yet with a strong acoustic presence for the wonderful amplified archtop texture.
Whittemore Classicals
Hand-crafted using wonderfully seasoned 40-year old woods, Whittemore classical are concert-level nylon string guitars that will satisfy the most discerning musician.
Whittemore T-models
I grew up in DC following Roy Buchannan and Danny Gatton around like they were gods. With their inspiration I have been hand-crafting Tele-style electrics since 1985 using the finest woods and hardware, the old fashioned way. I am a true one man custom shop, and you will not find a better T.
Whittemore semi-hollow electrics
I build two semi-hollow electric models, both voiced for jazz and blues, as well as a ES-330-inspired thin-line archtop. These are Incredibly versatile gigging guitars for the discerning musician.
