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!
Terry McInturff has been building guitars for over 25 years. He is most definitely on the "A" list of boutique solidbody luthiers today. He's built instruments for Eric Clapton, Jimmy Page, and Jeff Beck to name a few. Terry's work is flawless, from his finishes to his impeccable craftsmanship, each one of his instruments is a unique tool that allows the player to most clearly express his or herself.
