2024 Veillette Avante Gryphon

With its eye-catching small size and clean modern design, the Veillette Avante Gryphon stands apart from the usual 6 and12-string instruments and offers a new and exciting alternative for any player looking to expand their range and versatility. As a songwriting tool and as a compact traveling companion, the Veillette Avante is guaranteed to inspire. Handcrafted under exclusive license to Veillette's exacting standards, the Veillette Avante features a solid spruce top, mahogany back and sides, mahogany neck, rosewood fingerboard and bridge, 18.5” scale, and a Fishman transducer with active preamp. Guitarists can immediately play mandolin-style parts in a new high register without learning a new tuning and it excels as a very friendly alternative to traditional folk instruments like the bouzouki, mando-cello, and Cuban tres and cuatro. Whether plugged in or acoustically, the Veillette Avante is in a class by itself. Beautifully made, and a great and unique addition to your instrumental palette. Only $1450 w/Gig bag
