  • The Cragg

    $45,000.00

    “The Cragg”, a magnificent creature that lies between a dragon and a sea serpent, poised to create its own legends. The creature’s sculpting encompasses the entire guitar itself; contouring comfortably to the player’s body. Beyond the sculpting, the aesthetics of this “lifeform” play with the surprisingly vibrant natural hues of all domestic woods. Each block of wood was personally hand (and ear) selected for tone, resonance, beauty, strength, and appropriate weight. “The Cragg’s” figured Poplar body combines with a firm but light seven piece Roasted Maple and Roasted Birch neck. It is crowned with a leering, screaming dragon complete with antler horns, bookmatched Osage Orange knothole eyes, and a Jade tongue. The combination of 100 year old Bird’s Eye Maple fretboard, Jade nut and tailpiece, and the Seymour-Duncan Seth Lover pickups, create a sound you must hear to believe.

  • Nucleus #004

    $7,500.00

    This is actually the 5th nucleus model we have done. Built to the same basic model specs as my other nuclei. However, this one was built almost entirely by Steve Sells and boasts a few of his own modifications. The materials, adornments, and hardware were chosen by Steve.  For those of you who do not know Steve, he has been my assistant luthier since my very first custom order many years ago.   Special “SS” logo and custom stonework throughout.
