John is at the top of the archtop heap. Truly a supreme master in the art of luthiery.
The Teardrop is IMHO one of the most pure expressions of blending designs of classics past with modern appointments (wooden bindings and trim) and top notch build quality. I love his sense of aesthetics and execution of design. Cheers,

John's the man !! Petillo, Triggs, and Monteleone are my three most favorite archtop builders of the modern age.

They should have another go at Guitars at the Smithsonian, but this time instead of blue as a theme, bring out the teardrops! Something about that shape says "a true luthier made me!"

Bit of a resurrection here. Just came across this thread whilst searching something else entirely on Google. Thought it was worth a tip of the hat at the very least.
