YOU ARE VIEWING A SALES ARCHIVE ENTRY - THIS GUITAR HAS BEEN SOLD. IT IS POSTED HERE AS AN EXAMPLE OF PAST SALES. PLEASE CHECK THE "NEW ARRIVALS" SECTION FOR INSTRUMENTS THAT ARE IMMEDIATELY AVAIABLE.

DAG is excited to present one of the first Artinger instruments to come along throught the DAG pipeline. As is typical of Artinger's work the detail is astounding. If you study the photos carefully you'll find there's a great deal to see in this guitar. The hand carving work in particular just doesn't stop!

This is the third of Artinger's 'blondie" one-off hollows. He's been building one of these per year since 2004, and each is a unique chance to put together some cutting edge details, and Matt Artinger's favorite combinations of woods and trim. This one features a handcarved german spruce top, handcarved mahogany back, mahogany sides, lightweight spanish cedar neck with multilayered slotted headstock with waverly tuners, 25" scale, black/koa/black binding scheme with comfort bevels front and rear, cat's eye soundholes with sideport and additional soundholes flanking the tail, one-off ebony and koa bridge tail and fingerrest, one-off seymour duncan jazz humbucker with ebony/koa cover and gold poles, flushmount strap buttons, recessed ebony control knobs with copper hoop markers. $7800
