Hand Made Guitars by Luthier Dan Koentopp

FOR SALE

I am now offering a reselling service for my instruments. There is no better place to represent and sell my work than here on my website where I can communicate with both the seller and the buyer.  If the seller desires, these instruments will be checked over and setup by me before they are sold. I will ensure each guitar is represented clearly, honestly, and answer any specific questions that arise. In most cases, each guitar has been highlighted in a past blog article so I will write a brief description of the instrument here with a link to the guitar’s specifications and archived photos. I am available to speak about any details over the phone or email, so please reach out! Dan@KoentoppGuitars.com / 773-859-0157


 

SOLD — 2020 Koencaster (#070)-   Click here for link to photos  (Scroll down to see pictures of #070)

The hollow body with its set-through neck design gives this guitar a versatility in sound with a foundation of balance, sustained resonance, and comfort. Matched with amazing Ron Ellis pickups, a LRP humbucker at the neck and a Mid-Tall single coil at the bridge, with a Calaham bridge, this guitar covers a lot of ground. This guitar features the same woods as Matt Warnock’s custom Koencaster; Lake Superior salvaged maple top, a Honduran Mahogany body, Palisander Rosewood fingerboard, and a slab maple neck. It has a 25.25″ scale, a 1.6875″ nut width, and a 12″ fingerboard radius.

2020 #069 Koencaster For Sale

 


(SOLD)  Chicagoan Oval Hole (#43) –  comes with a Hoffee carbon fiber case and strung up with .012″-.052″ strings

This guitar is currently available… I wish I could keep it for myself. It’s presence is wonderfully alive and its voice is so beautiful. The basses are large with a lot of vibrating support while the trebles sing with a softness that seems effortless. It’s loud but at the same time very delicate. I strive to build “concert level” instruments and this guitar checks all the boxes. I’ve gone over the whole instrument top to bottom; the previous owner played this guitar a lot which is obvious in the guitar’s open voice but in terms of wear, the guitar is in almost new condition. This is a fully acoustic instrument (no pickup) and it is one of the most versatile designs I make. This guitar can do anything! I’ll post a video as soon as I can get something decent from my fingers, or if I’m lucky, someone who we all want to hear play! (12/27/2021) Click here for specs and pictures

Oval Hole Chicagoan #48 – Available for sale


(SOLD) -The “Most Chicago” Chicagoan (#040) 2014/15 is currently for sale. I made this guitar for a wonderful client, David Villa. We shared a lot of common interests including our love for the great City of Chicago. Sadly, David past away in 2021 from a long battle with cancer. Working with David was a really special experience that I will always remember. His respect for the creative process while sharing his energy and desires helped make these guitars quite special (This was the second guitar I made for David) This guitar is in new condition and is $16,000. We would love to find a new owner who will love and cherish it as much as David did. (5/26/2021) Click here for specs and pictures
