Comprised primarily of locally sourced domestic hardwoods, this custom built instrument is hand crafted here in west Michigan and features a unique design that stands out from other instruments and is truly one of a kind.

This guitar was heavily inspired by Wolf, a guitar played by Jerry Garcia, built by Doug Irwin.

Specs for the particular instrument are as follows:

Scale length: 25”
Weight: 7.32 lbs
Construction: Glued-in/Set neck
Body: Cherry core with book matched figured mahogany top and back with center accents of flamed maple, cherry & walnut
Neck: 3 pc laminated maple and walnut, chunky C shape
Nut: Hand-cut bone ~1.65″ wide
Fingerboard: Walnut, 12” radius w/cream binding, white dots
Frets: 22 x Jescar 55095 nickel/silver frets (Dunlop 6105 Tall/Narrow equivalent)
Pickups : 2x vintage wound Alnico II P-90s
Controls: V/T/3 way
Bridge: Tune-o-matic with stop tail
Tuners: Grover Rotomatics 18:1
Finish: Gloss polyurethane

In effort of full transparency this guitar does has some finish imperfections; as can be expected with a hand applied, non-factory finish. Rest assured these are purely cosmetic in nature and do not affect the playability of the instrument in any way. I would say it would be in line with what a used instrument exhibit.

If you can look past some cosmetic flaws in the finish you have an opportunity to pick up a fantastic, well playing hand crafted instrument.

If you have questions, please ask. Please review all provided information and photos and ask any questions you may have prior to bidding or buying as I do not accept returns.

Note: While each instrument is setup for great playability (including fretwork, neck relief, string height) preferences will differ between players – as such you may need to do some adjusting once received to match your playing style.

No case is included, but instrument will be packed well for travel.
