Inspiration

  Full disclosure:  This one is mine. 😁

  In a way, this guitar is a major checkpoint in my luthier journey, as detailed on the About page.  I created this one because since my first cheap guitar I had not owned a single strat style instrument.

  It is a checklist of everything I could want in a strat.  Roasted Flame Maple neck, Rosewood fingerboard, Vintage Purple Pearlescent finish, Mint green 3-ply pickgaurd, TUSQ nut, locking Graphtech Ratio tuners, Wilkinson-Gotoh Trem, and those absolutely incredible Bareknuckle Irish Tour pickups.  

  And a volume knob that is situated in a reasonable spot.  😉

  My goal is to build guitars that do for their new owners what this guitar does for me.
