This unique creation is crafted from a single piece of impeccably quartersawn, highly figured Sapele Mahogany, used for both the body and the neck. The fingerboard is made from Crelicam ebony. A defining feature is the intricate Celtic knot engraving on the top, inspired by my grandmother’s Scottish and Welsh heritage. The knot reflects a connection to Celtic traditions, and its bold presence across the guitar’s surface celebrates both history and individuality.
The guitar features custom laser-engraved Lace Alumitone pickups, ensuring compatibility across various playing styles and delivering a completely noiseless experience. Inside the control cavity, I created a unique copper verdigris effect, adding another layer of artistry to what is normally hidden. This model embodies my approach to guitar building, blending craftsmanship, personal history, and technical innovation.
