SP Luthier Notes: All of the frets were polished, recrowned and leveled. The truss rod and bridge were fully adjusted. No further work was required.
This Tuttle Custom Hollow T is a sleek, resonant workhorse with boutique finesse and a striking Steel Grey Metallic nitro finish that looks as bold as it sounds. The alder body keeps things balanced and lively, while the roasted maple/IRW neck in a comfortable .830–.930 C profile feels fast, smooth, and familiar from the first chord. Stainless steel frets and the TonePros/Goldo G5 bridge add precision and reliability, and the dual “PD” GrillMaster pickups deliver rich, articulate power with effortless versatility. With scrape binding and blacked-out accents, this is a confident, long-term investment built to inspire night after night.
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.
