What is most striking is the consistent quality of tone from one of Ray's instruments to the next. He has been able to develop a tonal signature that takes into account the individual characteristics of each piece of wood to create a remarkably complex acoustic chamber
capable of producing rich musical tones. This consistency is very important to buyers of
custom-made instruments.
One of the best practitioners in the art of mandolin and guitar construction today is Ray Dearstone, who has been
making mandolins and guitars for over eighteen years.
Ray's approach to building these instruments is not radical. He adheres to time-proven methods, with great respect for the classic designs. Ray builds mandolins, archtop guitars, and violins in the traditional way, applying great skill to carefully hand-carve the arched top and back, a process that tunes the instrument's body to its most resonant pitch. This critical step is required to deliver volume and tonal complexity.mandolin,guitar,violin,mandolins,guitars,violins,electric,
