The GCS-1 feels a bit like a secret. It's such a capable, well-playing and great sounding guitar it's amazing there isn't more of a buzz around it. I guess it's probably because once you get one you'll spend more time playing this guitar than talking about it. It's more than a jazzbox, it's ideal for a multi-genre musician. Jazz? No sweat, it can do mellow. Rock? Crank up the bridge pickup and wail. Progressive? World? Latin? Bluegrass? Well, maybe not the last one, but you get the point. It's for the player who is continually searching for the next thing, and it's going to be capable of delivering whatever that may happen to be.
The GCS-1 is a solidly built semi-hollow guitar designed for musicians looking for a well-made practical and roadworthy musical instrument. Inherently versatile, it can produce a myriad of tonalities suitable for blues, rock, country, and jazz playing. It adorns a laminated flame Maple top with a laminated Sapele back, and the sides/internal block structure are routed from a solid wood core. This design yields a balanced and even articulation with enhanced sustain characteristics. Included is a TKL hard-shell case. A version with a U.S. made Bigsby vibrato is also available.
One of the finest archtop builders in the world, Bill Comins produces instruments of unsurpassed quality. His attention to every detail is immediately evident when you pick up and play one of his guitars. Bill brings the complete package: tone, looks, playability, and craftsmanship. While his instruments pay homage to traditional designs, they also have that unique “Comins” character… warm, fat, and mellow with tone for days. Recently, he has taken his art and expertise to the world of solid-body electric guitars, and been creating some new gems in that arena that are simply to die for. His works are masterpiece collectibles designed to stand up to the test of time.
