Messenger Electric Guitar
The Messenger model delivers an amazing sound not usually heard on an unplugged electric guitar. The sound mainly comes from the back of the guitar and resonates through the ash body. While playing it plugged in you can actually feel it vibrating against your body. The Messenger electric guitar is a sweet sounding instrument. This one landed on my personal rack but I will build more for other customers.
