Sound Pure's Take
Condition: Used, Excellent
Only Ltd. Model of the 500 Series in Trans Red - Michael was saving this one for himself!!!
Like all of Michael Tuttle's guitars, this one plays like a dream, striking a perfect balance between warmth and snap and, being chambered, it has a pronounced acoustic resonance. This baby will cover all of the bases, from twangy to searing and funky to chunky. A guitar of this caliber at a pre-loved price won't stick around for long!
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!
