What We Think

Condition: Used, Excellent

Truly one-of-a-kind! With an all maple body and set-neck and a rosewood fingerboard, this strat style guitar from Branzell has brawn and bite. Fitted with four dip switches (one for each pickup plus a bridge only override) you've got the ability to get traditional and non-traditional strat tones at your fingertips.

SP Luthier Notes: Fret dress and setup

Manufacturer's Description from Other

Since graduating from Roberto Venn School of Luthiery in 1978, the quest to understand what makes great guitars was instilled and continues to intrigue me. The careful blending of fine tone woods and old world craftsmanship (I still mainly use hand tools) lays the foundation for the sonic and aesthetic qualities that define a Branzell Guitar.
