His approach is fluid and experimental, and his instruments have constantly evolved. He strives to build guitars that are brilliant in tone, rich in sustain and overtones, and fun to play.

2010 Keller Jumbo
http://www.dreamguitars.com/detail/5227-keller_jumbo_2010/
Cash Price $4,495
With the deadly combination of striking aesthetics and exceedingly well-balanced tone, Michael Keller gives us this gorgeous 2010 Jumbo with an offset soundhole and two soundports for an acoustic experience unlike any other. Not only do the sizable soundports provide unprecedented access to the interior workings of Keller's bracing techniques, they also project a hearty blast of music right at the player, so there's never going to be a time when you can't hear yourself, no matter how loud the session at your local ale house.
Between the gorgeous, straight-grained Indian Rosewood of the back and sides, and the Engelmann Spruce, there's more eye candy than you'll know what to do with: precision-cut MOP across the fretboard, thin bands of Abalone and dyed wood trim across the top and headstock, and a five-piece Mahogany neck with Maple and Rosewood laminations. Well-adapted for both fingerstyle arrangements and flatpicking, you may find that your other guitars will quickly start gathering dust once this Keller Jumbo enters your collection. It has heaps of rich, colorful tone to offer, and a clean projection that can cut through the mix with ease. Handled with care by its previous owner, this Keller bears only the faintest play wear, but is itching to get grooving.
2005 Keller Jumbo
http://www.dreamguitars.com/detail/5245-keller_jumbo_2005/
Cash Price $4,195
2005 must have been a good year for Michael Keller, because this 2005 Jumbo with flamed Koa and Engelmann Spruce is a firecracker (or should we say mortar shell?) of a guitar! The bass is pronounced, but with a well-defined edge that keeps this Jumbo from sounding muddy, and the trebles are strong without being shrill, which allow this guitar to work well for both fingerstyle and flatpicking approaches, and performs best with a medium to aggressive attack to really set the Engelmann Spruce top singing.
With the added soundport on the upper bout, this Keller's huge voice is also directed straight to your ear to make this a great choice for loud venues or sessions--not to mention the pride you'll feel as you show off the well-executed Abalone inlay across the body and neck. For a player seeking a slim nut, this Jumbo offers that in combination with a low/medium C profile neck for comfortable fretting work, and the setup is glass-smooth. Michael Keller's one of the greats when it comes to Jumbos; do yourself a favor and try this big boy on for size.
