About the guitar
This 2026 "Performer" model by Daniel Stark is a traditionally built crossover guitar that offers versatility across musical styles. Designed for both amplified and acoustic use, it delivers a notably balanced, full-bodied sound with minimal susceptibility to feedback, thanks to its cross-braced spruce top and careful internal voicing. The slightly thinner neck profile facilitates thumb-over techniques and offers comfort for players coming from other musical backgrounds.
Crafted with Indian rosewood back and sides and finished in polyurethane, this instrument offers excellent projection and tonal clarity without sacrificing warmth. The cutaway design enhances upper-register access, making it suitable for soloists and jazz players alike. A premium Carlos VIP DM pickup system is installed, combining a coaxial transducer and mini-microphone with mono output and discreet soundhole controls for stage and studio adaptability. This model represents a cohesive blend of classical resonance and modern playability.
