Urlacher Guitars Testimonials
Left-Handed Claro Walnut Tenor Guitar
The guitar arrived in pristine condition and surpassed my expectations which were high. My impression as compared to my 1963 Gibson tenor guitar:
- A lighter weight, slightly smaller body
- Much brighter fuller tone
- Deeper sound of the 3rd & 4th strings
- The highly figured walnut is gorgeous and striping in the Sitka spruce was more than I expected.
It is the sum of all these parts that make it a treasure and a master work of art. To me it will always be worth much more than the money I payed for it. This guitar is a unique instrument not mass produced as I saw at the Gibson guitar factory. The entire process has been a joy like waiting for Christmas and receiving the perfect gift. Thank you.

East Indian Rosewood Parlor Guitar
"I love the guitar! The sound is extremely well balanced and does not compress when played hard. The fullness is incredible and very surprising for an instrument of this size. The neck is perfect! I capoed the 7th fret and had no problem chording or finger picking! I got out my Larrivee P-09 Brazilian and there was no comparison. My Urlacher Guitar has the tone and sound way beyond the P-09! It is clear how much you poured your heart into this guitar.You should be very proud of this one. It will get a lot of use in the studio and on live performances." Mike Hamilton — Jessup, MD — 3/2010

"The guitar looks stunning. I am absolutely delighted with the appearance and finish. A truly beautiful instrument with a wonderful tone and sustain. I'm so pleased with the guitar and can't thank you enough for your expertise and attention to detail. I can honestly say, I've enjoyed the whole process ~ from the start, researching woods, to choosing a luthier … and corresponding with yourself." Belinda Wilson — Scotland, UK — 2/2010
Hawaiian Curly Koa Parlor Guitar
"Rebecca's attention to detail (woodworking and otherwise) is immaculate, and with simple, elegant designs. Tonally the guitars are full and robust, with nuance and clarity that is a joy to hear and play." Larry Pattis — Fingerstyle Guitarist — 11/2009
Brazilian Rosewood Concert Guitar
"I first learned of Urlacher Guitars from two of my friends that had purchased them. They were both beautiful and had great volume and projection for such small-bodied guitars. I contacted Rebecca and purchased a Concert style Brazilian Rosewood guitar. I was blown away by the unique look and feel of the guitar. This guitar is perfectly intonated across the entire fret board and when strumming a chord, the back, sides and top come alive resonating. I do home recording for fun and my first experience recording with it was amazing. The guitar sings and cuts through the mix both for rhythm work as well as acoustic leads. My poor Martin D-41 has not gotten any recording work since I bought the Urlacher." Shawn Murphy — Yakima, WA — 12/2008
