Rocket Tone Guitars

Post by SPACERITUAL »

Peeps also on the OSG forum may know about these but for those that dont this dude does custom handmade guitars at well under a grand. Great alternative for those looking for something funky but roadworthy on the cheap.

Those look so sweet, but I have a hard time shelling out that kinda cash for MDF and masonite... And I LOVE Dano's and Detroit. Like L - O - V - E . (Nick - if I remember his name correctly - is in metro-Detroit.) That all black Mustang speaks to me in a big way though. Damn. :drool:

Just double-checked on the site and it looks like it's only the 50's series that are MDF. The regular ones are poplar. Good catch.

Am I too blind to see base prices anywhere on the site, or is it one of those things where I have to be serious enough to ask for a quote?

the notion of having them run up a Mustangy/Duo-Sonicy thing in a lovely shade of blue or turquoise with a flamey neck, rosewood fingerboard, and parchment or tortoise guard is very beguiling. especially if it was going to cost $600.
