Guitar 001

The Instrument

The 001 is extremely warm for a small bodied instrument, but retains a punchy midrange and a moderately clear treble.

Have a listen:

Open, 12th fret harmonic, progression then picking.

Standard 001 – £2500

The standard 001 is a solid high-end instrument that boasts the following:

  • Sitka Spruce top
  • Mahogany Back, Sides and Neck
  • Rosewood bridge, fingerboard and trimings
  • Neck Side Fret Markers

Acoustic properties can be tailored to each individual, so please do let me know if you’ve got any preferences.

Custom Models

A number of modifications/extras can be added to suit your preference, for example:

  • Fretboard Dots/Markers
  • Pickups/Transducers + Preamp
  • Custom Inlay work
  • Tailored Tonal Properties

Please don’t hesitate to contact me if you want a custom instrument made.
