Tyson Soth Grand Auditorium Sinker Sitka and Walnut Serial # GA000923

Spokane-based luthier Tyson Soth built this Grand Auditorium as an absolute model of beauty and purpose. This lovely, easy-playing, and comfortable guitar (two bevels!) was built to honor the good people at Spokane Children's Hospital and to raise funds for the Children's Cancer Coalition. Why? Tyson credits them with saving his child's life.

Sound Profile A sinker Sitka top complemented by walnut back and sides, with an ebony fretboard that brings sparkling highs to this wonderful instrument — a lovely, easy-playing, comfortable guitar.

Built for a Cause Originally built for auction, this guitar didn't sell at its reserve, and Tyson has kept it somewhat under wraps ever since, bringing it only to the occasional custom guitar show as an example of what he could do. That's where we found it and fell in love with this beauty. Then we heard its story and wanted to help the world find this beauty too — a guitar built to honor Spokane Children's Hospital and to raise funds for the Children's Cancer Coalition.
