What We Think

Condition: Used, Excellent

SP Luthier Notes: A minor dent on the headstock was filled, color matched and refinished. 

The Terry C. McInturff Polaris #8009 is a finely crafted solidbody that blends boutique craftsmanship with powerful, expressive tone. Its Honduran mahogany body delivers a warm, resonant foundation with strong mids and excellent sustain, while the original McInturff humbuckers provide rich, articulate tones that handle both clean and driven sounds with ease. The set neck construction and slightly longer scale length contribute to a tight, responsive feel, paired with a smooth rosewood fingerboard for comfortable playability across all 22 frets. Finished in translucent cherry red, it has a striking yet classic appearance. Bold, dynamic, and full of character, this Polaris offers a voice that feels both refined and uniquely musical!
