Sound Pure's Take

Weight: 7.5 lbs.

Condition: Used, Excellent

Like all of Michael Tuttle's guitars, this Custom Classic T is a joy to play, its alder body perfectly weighted and acoustically resonant. Strum a chord or play a run on its rosewood fingerboard and you'll instantly feel the difference that Michael's pristine fretwork makes. The Custom Mini and Area T pickups with 4-way switching are a killer combination, it's got the quintessential 'tele' sound, with a little added ballsiness if you want it. This is a guitar that you'll feel equally comfortable chicken picking on as playing a power ballad!

From Michael Tuttle Guitars

That's what you get with Michael Tuttle Guitars

For the past two decades Michael has specialized in the fine art of what it takes to make a piece of wood feel good. Michael makes the necks feel like they're a part of your hands from the moment you pick them up.

Michael Tuttle's background includes stints with Valley Arts and Don Grosh Guitars, where, among other things, he gained a reputation for his fretwork. As a guitar player for the last 30 years, the transition from a professional musician to guitar builder has been a valuable asset to his company. He built his first guitar in the early 80's and in 1993 started building guitars commercially. After 10 years of honing the art of guitar building working for other organizations it was time to start out on his own. Michael Tuttle Guitars began in 2003. His unique craftsmanship and quality are unparalleled. Once you've played a Tuttle you'll know!
