Sound Pure's Take

Condition: Used, Very Good

It seems to be a weekly occurrence anymore that I want to take another one of Michael Tuttle's amazing guitars home with me and this Custom Classic T is no exception. Its ash body is nice and light, the butterscotch finish classic and playful. I love the way the oil finish maple neck feels, smooth and fast from the nut all the way up to the 22nd fret. Its pair of Tuttle 50's T pickups with 4-way switching deliver a ridiculous amount of tonal options, letting you dish out twangy to beefy and all in between with the greatest of ease. This guitar is as sweet as can be!

 

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!
