Luthier's Many Labors Of Love: Creator of SoloEtte travel guitars ...
The guitars designed and built by Rossco Wright were once truly unique: a single stick of solid wood, with tuning pegs on the bottom, and a removable framework so the instrument could be broken down for easy transport. The SoloEtte classical guitar was designed as a travel guitar, and travel it did: To space, where one was presented to Russian cosmonauts on the space station Mir in 1995. And to Seattle, where a SoloEtte is encased in the Guitar Gallery at the Experience Music Project next to other ground-breaking guitars. It was a tiny niche in the highly competitive guitar industry, but a profitable one for Wright. At its peak around 2000, Wright Guitar Technology employed about 10 workers who built 100 SoloEtte guitars a month at the company's workshop in a west Eugene industrial park.
