The Bakersfield is our version of the early 60’s custom design with a modern twist. We chose what we felt were the best parts of the guitars built from 1959-61 and added a flatter radius, slightly larger frets and compensated saddles. With it’s double bound body and mint green guard these guitars have a classic look that is just stunning! This makes a classic feeling and a sound that’s pure Bakersfield without some of the limitations found in the original.

The Old Soul is something special; like the name implies - it’s built to play and sound older than it is. These guitars feel and sound like they have been played for 50 years! The Old Soul is a culmination of observations that come with 24 years of building new guitars and restoring 100s of vintage guitars.
The body is a mix of Northern Ash and old-growth Sugar Pine - finished in a super thin lacquer applied just like Leo did in the day.
