Here we have a gorgeous little flat-backed archtop guitar from London-based luthier Nick Branwell. Entirely handbuilt by Nick himself, this instrument is reminiscent of early Epiphone from the early 1930's (note the segmented f-holes) and similar to a Waterloo AT - though this one won't set you back nearly £5k and is available now.
