Checker Rope Big Boy

I am very excited about this guitar. The first one to come rolling out of my new shop. I wanted to try something different. This guitar will be the very first of my Checker Rope Dreadnoughts, similar to a Herringbone but different. This wood purfling was used by prominent guitar makers in the 1920's and 1930's. I want to revive this ever so elegant look. This will be a one-of-a-kind instrument that will be sure to turn some heads. Stay tuned!!
