Description
Stunning hardtail offset, built by a proud Echo Tone alumnus right here in Naarm. This is a new guitar we are selling on the builders behalf, making you YES YOU the first owner. It packs all the features and refinement you'd hope for from You Know Who: a Tasmanian Blackwood body finished in a VOS two-tone nitro, a chunky C-shaped flame maple neck with a dark ebony fingerboard, Righteous Sound JM pickups, a Tuffset Fixie bridge, Heard tailpiece, Gotoh DS91 tuners, and a custom cellulose pickguard. It's difficult to put into words just how satisfying this guitar is to play.
Every detail feels considered, from the way it resonates acoustically to the way it responds through an amp. The time and care poured into its design and construction are immediately obvious. It looks, feels, and sounds like an instrument carrying a genuinely intimidating price tag.
We've had the privilege of seeing some truly world-class offset guitars coming out of Melbourne (Jon Shubb, less fishing and more guitar building, please), and this stands shoulder to shoulder with the very best of them. Made in Australia. Serial Number 003. Mono Gig bag.
