Discover the sensational Michael Tuttle Classic T in Vintage White, a guitar that truly sings with soul and superb playability! Crafted with a gorgeous roasted maple neck for unparalleled stability and silky-smooth feel, this instrument is designed to delight. Its "PD" brushed nickel pickups deliver a vibrant, versatile voice, perfectly complemented by a series/parallel switch for endless tonal textures. Every fret has been lovingly polished, recrowned, and leveled, with the truss rod and bridge meticulously adjusted by a master luthier, ensuring an absolutely rock-solid, supremely playable experience right out of the case. More than just a guitar, this is an investment in exceptional artistry and resonant rich tones that will inspire for years to come!
We are so fortunate to work with the builders that we represent. Over the years, we've been lucky enough to get on board early with companies that had their act together before the "guitar world" discovered them. Several years back, two people (whose opinions we deeply respect) said we had to check out Michael's guitars. Michael sent us an S and T, and we sold the S model to the first person who heard it! Needless to say, we knew we were on to something. Tuttle has been building for over 20 years and got his start working at Valley Arts in California with Don Grosh, whom he worked with at Grosh Guitars. In 2003, Michael started Tuttle Guitars. Michael's attention to detail is very evident. Being a small builder (Michael’s team consists of himself and an assistant), everything needs to be right the first time out. This is a huge benefit for the player, as there can be no "Monday or Friday" guitars. We’ve always loved it when the guy’s name that's on the headstock had his hands all over the instrument when it was built - his reputation and quality of work is on the line every time one of his creations goes out the door. It's wonderful when you put one of Michaels guitars in a player's hands for the first time and watch their reaction. Michael is such a talented builder, and we are lucky to have such a positive relationship with him as a shop.
