A Truly Stunning Custom Built Instrument

This one-of-a-kind guitar was commissioned by a customer who wanted a bespoke double-cut design inspired by the classic Nighthawk body shape.

From the very first glance, the wood choices make a statement: a 5A flamed maple top and matching maple neck, paired with a two-piece swamp ash body, and finished with an absolutely striking piece of figured Mun ebony for the fretboard.

The guitar features a 25.5" scale length, 22 medium-jumbo frets, and a 12" fretboard radius, offering a familiar yet highly versatile playing feel.

Hardware comes courtesy of Gotoh, with cosmo-black wraparound bridge and tuners that perfectly complement the guitar’s overall aesthetic.

Electronics are where this build becomes truly unique. It’s fitted with a Seymour Duncan SHPR-1b P-Rail, paired with a 3×3 Free-Way switch, unlocking six distinct pickup voices:

• P90

• Single rail

• Full humbucker (both coils)

• Series, in-phase

• Series, out-of-phase

• Parallel, out-of-phase

For a single-pickup guitar, the tonal range is extraordinary — from gritty P90 growl to tight single-coil clarity to full humbucker punch.

In the end, this instrument is exactly what it set out to be: a fully bespoke, meticulously crafted guitar, built to the customer’s exact specifications, with looks and tone that are nothing short of remarkable.
