It’s with a heavy heart to announce that my husband Darren passed away February 25th

All production is being shutdown for the time being. We need to finish what is in process at the moment. Once we get a few out the door we will start taking orders again.

For those with builds in process we are running a little behind. Some of the vendors have a lot of the parts needed on back order and for those wanting new builds getting good body and neck blanks is proving to be a bit of a pain. I’ve had to send back several pieces of wood as they were not up to my standards. I’m going to be making a run about 5 hours away to get some body and neck blanks, mostly alder truly hoping for some swamp ash body blanks and maple neck blanks. Please be patient, this is a 10 hour round trip drive with no guarantees on what or how much I’ll come back with.

New guitar in progress, it will compliment the blue Firebird Style aka the Icebird we did for John Jorgenson. There isn’t any clear on it yet, it’s currently getting flaked

Getting ready for another metal flake...gonna be sweet when done. I need to let it sit for a while before I can spray the base coat for the flake to stick to it

This recent rain and cold snap really did a number on some of the wood blanks I have. I was smart enough to bring the quilted maple inside the house

UPDATE, in 2 weeks from today 12/29/2020 this guitar will be stripped down to the bare wood and repainted in white, black, red, or Sherwood Green...after the labor it will be for sale for $1,299 well below market value. If you are interested please send a PM and a deposit will be required

This was a special commission Marson Texas Ranger that the customer, Tony Black has refused to pay the balance before shipping, so it is available if you are interested let us know. We can reshoot the back in solid purple flake if you so desire for a small fee or strip it down and completely repaint it for our standard rate, see above update for pricing

Roasted swamp ash body
Maple/rosewood neck (come to think of it the fretboard may be Pao Ferro)
TV Jones Supertrons
CTS Pots
USSR .044 cap (very rare)
Gotoh Delta locking tuners
Bone nut
Oak Grigsby 3 way switch
Wilkinson bridge
Neck heel contour

PM for pricing, this is a custom guitar and will be sold for a reasonable price. If you want it completely repainted we will work with you on pricing. I figure around $350-$400 for a complete repaint in your choice of color, with a matching headstock. I have added another pick of the body before paint so maybe you can see a color you like on an unfinished body

Shooting a red metal flake Texas Ranger, it’s gonna be killer when it’s done
