Guitar 6
Custom OM Form
6 string 14 fret OM with East Indian Rosewood back and sides, sitka spruce top, ebony headstock overlay, fretboard, and bridge, and my characteristic curly maple bindings and skunk stripe. This guitar is built with falcate bracing for more responsiveness and a compensated nut for more accurate intonation. The rosette and inlay theme were requested by the customer who plays in a Christian group.
I love my Peachy Keen guitar! Ron did a wonderful job on the detail and finish to create a beautiful looking guitar but what I love the most is the attention to detail on creating a guitar that plays and sounds great. I've been a guitarist for the last 45+ years and have played several quality guitars, this Peachy Keen guitar is by far my favorite."

I love my new guitar, custom made for me by Ron Keen. Not only does it look beautiful, but it plays and sounds like no guitar I have ever owned, thanks to Ron’s knowledge of all the factors that go into it. I highly recommend hiring him for your custom guitar."
This is a guitar I wanted because never had a nylon strings instrument in the past. I think I'll enjoy playing/picking. My fingers will need to adjust. Pressing down the strings is easy and I can hear every note in the base part. Thank you Ron for the piece of art you made for me."
