Do you love single-cut guitars? Then come no further!

This guy has all the specs and refinements you would expect from a classic single-cut, from a 24 3/4″ scale length to a tune-o-matic bridge and tailpiece, and a 3 position toggle.

With this model, as with all my designs, I didnt want to just copy the features of the “standards” or make replicas. I wanted to embody the spirit of those guitars but bring them into the 21st century with regard to design and construction. In other words, I wanted to have everything I love about the classic guitars, and get rid of the things I dont care for.

The standard model will still include the touches one would expect from a classic instrument.

  • Genuine Mahogany body and neck
  • Solid maple slab top plate (no veneers)
  • Body and fretboard binding
  • Nitrocellulose finishes
  • Unbleached bone nut
  • Highest quality parts and hardware

 

This model, as with most of my builds, also comes standard with the following not-so-standard features:

  • Neck-through-body construction. (No heel, unrestricted upper fret access)
  • 3-piece laminate neck (all mahogany)
  • carbon fiber neck reinforcement
  • stainless steel frets
  • real mother-of-pearl and abalone inlays
  • wood cavity covers

 

and the standard specs for this model:

  • 24 3/4″ (actual) scale length
  • 22 stainless steel frets
  • 12″ fretboard radius
  • Genuine South American mahogany (Swietenia macrophylla) body and neck
  • Bookmatched, flamed maple top
  • Ebony headstock overlay
  • East Indian Rosewood fingerboard
  • White mother-of-pearl trapezoid inlays
  • Seymour Duncan pickups (standard JB and 59)
  • 3-way pickup selector toggle
  • CTS pots, orange drop caps
  • Nitrocellulose Lacquer

 

Guitars are built to order so specific choices of wood, inlay materials, hardware and pickup selections are subject to change based on the customers specific requirements.

The model pictured below has blue paua inlays and Gabon ebony fingerboard upgrades.
