Just delivered this custom build for NYC’s Charlie Castelluzzo:

Charlie and I discussed this guitar off and on for six months and he was involved in every element of the build. He chose a Selmer size body with a Lutz spruce top with three brace pattern, petite bouche sound hole, curly makore back (vaulted) and sides, off white nitrocellulose binding and multi-color rosette, The mahogany neck has a walnut walnut spline, old school Selmer style shape (wider and flatter on the back side than modern necks), Indian ebony fingerboard with mother of pearl diamond inlays, stainless frets, Selmer style head plate engraving, Golden Age Relic tuners and an adjustable truss rod. Tinted with sprayed shellac and finished with French polish. Miller tailpiece with ebony insert, Ebano bridge and mustaches. Charlie is a great player and I’m so pleased to have him playing a CB, thanks Charlie!
