DAG, proudly presents this stunning Quilt-Top Hollow Body from the hands of Roger Giffin

Highly figured quilt top hollow body, nature's own color scheme - "I pulled a few really nice pieces of wood out of the pile for this guitar. The quilt top, quite apart from being a nice piece of quilt, has so much natural color in it that it didn't need anything else other than clear gloss. The Mahogany that I used for the body and neck is an unusually figured piece of Honduras. It's not very often that one finds Mahogany with curly figure in the grain these days. The control cover plate is cut out of the wood and then put back in so that everything on the back matches up.  The neck is laminated with Purpleheart and curly Maple. The guitar has a Brazilian Rosewood fingerboard which is the absolute opposite of a straight-grain, quarter-sawn board, a great-looking piece of Rosewood! I've used Amalfitano humbuckers with a coiltap on a push/pull tone control. This sounds great on the hollow-bodies. The bridge is Tonepros and the tuners are Gotoh 510 Delta series which are as smooth as butter. A really nice guitar!" - Roger Giffin
