The Nightingale is Ryan Guitars' most versatile model, featuring tremendous bass, iridescent trebles, and warm, sustaining tone. Expect balanced string-to-string clarity and separation, consistent, clear articulation up and down the fretboard, and the full suite of Ryan design innovations. Suited for fingerstyle, single note lead, strumming, Celtic ballads, open tuning, and lush open chords.

This Nightingale Grand Soloist takes things up a notch.. or two.. as it has the ultra rare Lucky Strike Old Growth Redwood soundboard, as well as a once in a lifetime set of incredible African Blackwood. If you don't know about the exclusivity and rarity of these wonderful materials, it's fascinating to learn about! Most importantly - in the hands of Kevin Ryan, the potential of these materials is fully realized, as this guitar is one of the finest sounding Ryan Guitars we've had through our doors.
