Your chance to buy a one-of-a-kind shop prototype. This super-light and tuneful axe will be your go-to gigging companion from the moment you open the case and play your first chord.

The Georgia Pine Tulsa #2 is the result of revised tooling for my Tulsa model. I used pine because it is plentiful and easy to work. It’s not as rare (or costly) as the exotics from Central and South America, or the African woods I normally use, which is good when you are experimenting! I was intrigued by the light weight and buttery color, and decided to pair it with a hard maple neck just like Leo’s prototypes. It turned out better than I’d imagine.  It also sports a natural lacquer in matte finish. Punchy and resonant. Available now, call or email us about this one-of-a-kind opportunity!
