Signature Series Guitars

Denny Jiosa Signature Model

We are excited to have Denny Jiosa as part of our family. Denny is recognized and respected worldwide as one of the most dynamic and soulful guitarists on the scene today. He is best known for his six smooth jazz projects, all garnering Top 5, and 10 positions on the smooth jazz charts, as well as delivering his #1 hit single "Wounded Warriors" in the UK. His hit song, “Lights of The City” was SESAC’s #1 most played jazz song of that year, reaching #5 on the smooth jazz charts.

He is equally at home in the studio as a renowned producer and engineer. With four Grammy nominations to his credit, his production skills range from Americana, rock, blues, latin, gospel,and jazz. He has worked with artists such as gospel sensation Yolanda Adams, Master guitarist Phil Keaggy, the late Bobby Hebb (Sunny), Saxophonist Kirk Whalum, Drummer Chester Thompson (Genesis, Santana), Country star Crystal Gayle, Phillip Baily, Ronnie Laws, and Take 6.

Denny plays the FX-PF007, a grand auditorium sized guitar with a solid book matched Bolivian Rosewood top and book matched Bolivian Rosewood back and sides. The bevel armrest adds comfort while playing. We have updated this model to include the FXA electronics with built in delay, chorus and reverb and Bluetooth. Boliivian Rosewood grain is tighter than a typical rosewood specimen, and it is thought to have a more distinctly percussive tone. Its tonal response has tight lows, present mids and a clear, singing high end response. It has a rosewood fretboard and bridge, plus a bone nut and saddle for added tone. The custom gold tuning machines complete this guitar with a very unique combination of exotic top and back woods. All Willow Creek Guitars ship with D'Addario coated strings.

Garrett Huffman

We are excited to announce that Garrett Huffman has joined the Willow Creek Guitars family, . The pandemic has had an effect on the lives of so many people, but Garrett decided he would turn a negative into a positive. He was well on his way to making a career in basketball, but two years ago when the courts were closed, he bought a guitar and started down the road to a new adventure. At age 18, we see a super star in the making. Watch this young man as he takes the world of music by storm.

Garrett has chosen the FX-SG91-GH guitar for his main instrument and the FX-PG00 for his backup. The FX-SG91-GH is hand made with solid "AAA" sitka spruce top and solid Indian rosewood back and sides. The ebony fretboard is highly adorned with our custom "Tree of Life" design. As with all Willow Creek Guitars it has a bone nut and saddle and die-cast gears. This guitar has our flagship FXA effects system with delay, chorus, reverb and Bluetooth. There is a built in condenser mic that can be blended with the under-saddle piezo for a warmer, more natural sound when amplified.
