This individually photographed Hurricane Series top combines dramatic swirling figure with naturally occurring blue stain, creating movement across the soundboard that is unlike any conventional spruce top. Each piece has its own distinctive character, with patterns that evoke the energy and power of a passing storm.

Despite its bold appearance, this top retains the responsive tone, light weight and excellent stiffness-to-weight ratio expected from premium Engelmann Spruce.

Every Hurricane Series top is individually photographed and one of a kind. The photographs shown are of the exact piece you will receive, allowing you to select the dramatic character that best complements your next instrument.
