Mark Bailey’s Kithara Archtop Guitar

Kithara. It was the crème-de-la-crème instrument of its time. Now, the name has been put to good use by luthier Mark Bailey. Watch and listen:

 

Mark’s Kithara is a guitar worthy of the name, as Mark explains:

 …a guitar worthy of the name…that’s what I wanted to make  

The Kithara is the flagship model of the Bailey collection – a modern take on the traditional archtop design. If you are a soloist then you will appreciate the Kithara as the cut away allows full access to the higher frets.  

Passion, tradition and technology combine to create what I believe to be the most beautiful guitars in the world  

The ultimate guitar… 

The Kithara is absolutely stunning. Check out pictures of it and get ready to salivate.
