The Teton Exotic Top guitars are built to look AND sound amazing. Ultra thin exotic wood veneers are applied to the top of a solid sitka spruce soundboard. The veneers are glued to the solid top with synthetic protein glue, which helps the top pieces of wood vibrate together to produce amazing tone. The Exotic Top series is not like any veneer topped guitar you have heard before. Our goal was to make a beautiful guitar that did not compromise the Teton sound that players have come to rely on. We accomplished this and are proud to offer guitars that will make sure they look as stellar as they sound when you are performing.
