As you can see from my website, many of the guitars shown are custom variations of standard models. Options for the different models are detailed below.

Tailpieces

Virtuoso models are equipped with a special hand engraved gold plated tailpiece as standard.

Imperial, Premier, Empire and Classic models are equipped with ebony tailpiece as standard. The optional hand engraved gold plated tailpiece is an additional $2500

All archtop models are offered with the choice of Benedetto or Seymor Duncan floating pick-up for an additional $250 including installation.

Occasionally I can obtain vintage DeArmond floating pick-ups. Price will vary.

Semi-solid body models are fitted with Gibson '57 Classic humbuckers as standard. Again, there are so many different pick-ups available and I leave this choice to the customer.

A Blue sunburst finish is an additional $800

A good quality plush-lined, hard-shell case is included in the price of all models. Upgrades are available for an additional cost.
