This guitar, The Warrior, was built for a customer who commissioned it in memory of his recently deceased father. His father was a woodworker, so I was asked to select the timber from his workshop. He was also a longtime member of the Lions, so also incorporated some memorabilia from that club.
The guitar was to be a solid body resonator. The customer suggested that it be a solid black finish, but as I dislike covering up timber with paint we came to a compromise. I suggested that as the timber came from his dad's wood stash it would be nice if the grain was visible, so a sunburst-style effect was added to the back of the guitar. It has two pickups, one piezo and the other magnetic and the body is New Guinee Rosewood.
