01.01.2022 Unfortunately this 17 inch arch top will not be available at the guitar show this year as i built this for a customer who asked me to build the guitar specifically how he wanted it and it was completed earlier this year, needless to say Justin was very happy with his choice of specs and the end result. So if you are looking for something specific in a hand built arch top guitar do yourself a favour and stop by stand A18 this weekend and speak to me about the guitar or your dreams!!
01.01.2022 Just working on a new model, 17 inch archtop, going to the next show.
