Ryan Guitars is a renowned name in the world of guitars, known for their exceptional craftsmanship and dedication to producing instruments of the highest quality. Founded by luthier Kevin Ryan, Ryan Guitars has gained a reputation for creating exquisite acoustic guitars that capture the hearts of musicians and collectors alike. One of the most iconic models from Ryan Guitars is the Ryan Nightingale Grand Soloist.

The guitar features a cutaway design, allowing for easy access to the higher frets, and its Engelmann spruce top ensures a balanced and responsive tone. The Nightingale Grand Soloist is a testament to Kevin Ryan’s expertise and passion for acoustic guitars.

Another notable model from Ryan Guitars is the Paradiso Grand Concert. Crafted with a stunning combination of Indian rosewood and a Western red cedar soundboard, this guitar delivers a warm and rich tone. Its impeccable craftsmanship is highlighted by intricate inlay work and attention to detail. The Paradiso Grand Concert is a favorite among fingerstyle guitarists, offering a perfect blend of tonal qualities and playability.

Kevin Ryan’s commitment to innovation and craftsmanship has led to the creation of other remarkable models, such as the Ryan Mission Grand Concert and the Cathedral Grand Fingerstyle. They can have soundboards made from exotic tone woods like sinker redwood, sitka spruce, or European spruce, resulting in a guitar with either complex overtones or exceptional projection and clarity. On the other hand, the back and sides can be, anything from Koa, to Cocobolo, to Madagascar rosewood.
