What We Think

This Carolina Custom is definitely the best playing LP-style guitar at Sound Pure. Did you know that McIntuff individually voices every guitar top to be sure it produces a clear note prior to building with it? Not many electric guitar builders go to this length! It's all about the fine details with McInturff Guitars and this brock-burst beauty will blow you away. It sure struck a note with us! 

Wow! We knew about Terry's reputation before we became a dealer of his but this instrument has surpassed all expectations. The first thing you notice is the weight of the instrument. It's perfect for this style guitar. It's not too heavy, so it won't break your back. The Peter Florance Voodoos have plenty of bark to them but maintain a great clarity. The guitar is very balanced top to bottom. Lows are not muddled and highs are not thin. The mids are perfect and don't get lost like with many pauls. The neck is very comfortable too. Hats off to Terry for such great work!

Take advantage of our 48 hour approval period. We're sure you won't want to return this masterpiece, however, we know this is a serious purchase and we want you to be 100% satisfied with your new boutique electric guitar from Sound Pure. Call or Email us today for more info on this Carolina Custom

Manufacturer's Description from Terry McInturff

After years of putting it off, Terry finally gave in to all of his fans saying, "When are you going to build a Les Paul style guitar?" Behold his latest creation, The Carolina Standard. This instrument is the result of a careers' worth of research on what makes a great Les Paul great. This guitar is identical to a great Les Paul in weight, dimension, and tone. And we're not talking about something you pull off the shelf new right now. We're talking about vintage instruments, some of which cost in the six figure range right now. Terry has worked very hard on this model and has put the prototype into many famous hands before settling on this final result.
