Jerry McCann and his NGC guitar
Jerry McCann's cutaway
Brazilian rosewood back
I met Jerry McCann early in my musical journey in northern California. He had a trio called “Show of Hands” and I recorded an original tune on their album. I then lost track of Jerry for about 30 years and when we got back in touch he asked me to make a guitar for him. Jerry is a fantastic musician and he is at home on an electric or acoustic guitar. I built a large body cut away style [ Jerry is one of the few players who can use the entire fingerboard on an acoustic ] with Brazilian rosewood and an Adirondack spruce. Jerry uses this guitar for all his solo gigs, songwriting and recording. He also asked me to make an “M” shaped bridge and inlays.
These days Jerry works in the San Diego area – check out his website: http://jerrymccann.com for some samples of his music.
