Sound Pure's Take

Weight: 7.4 lbs.

Sometimes it can feel like restating the obvious when talking about Michael Tuttle's expert craftsmanship and attention to detail, but pick up a guitar like this Olympic White S-Style and you'll see what all the fuss is about. Perfectly weighted, buttery smooth and able to dish out practically any tone you can think of. Every chord rings, every note sings, this baby is alive!

From Michael Tuttle Guitars

For the past two decades, Michael Tuttle 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!
