Thanks to a passionate musician Glenn Thompson we can publish an absolutely ultra rare, if not unique, scan of the little Bar Rashi booklet presenting is new wooden prototype guitar.


Also Glenn was so lucky that had a phone conversation with Bar Rashi as he relates: " ..... I remember from my phone conversations, Avraham Bar Rashi mentioned another model he was working on at that time. It was aproximately the same size but he described it as having a small sound box for the body. Looking like a classical with a small sound hole in the middle. He said it was sufficient in volume for personal practicing, and it would be amplified by a more conventional pick-up. The dimensions of the model were 84cm x 28-30cm wide. It was made of what he called "sandwich wood", a very strong laminate. He also spoke to me of a recording he was planning and said he would contact me when it was finished, but I never heard from him about it............"


Here are the pages of the booklet



Of course we absolutely don't agree with it's criticism to steel model that is an absolute masterpiece ......
