Headstock looks like a first act custom shop
not sure if that is correct, but that's what it looks like to me.

I remember hearing/reading once that Kurt Ballou made/whatevered a guitar for him. Could be that?

Yeah, I was thinking the same thing. They're called god city instruments. Here's one up close:

Yeah, that's Kurt's own brand, as I understand it. Not sure if they're widely available yet, or if you can only get them through Kurt...Obulus wrote:Yeah, I was thinking the same thing. They're called god city instruments.

Let us know if you score one. Because that would probably mean that you know Kurt Ballou personally, and I'd be kinda jealous.colossus wrote:Awesome. I knew I had seen it before. Thanks, guys!

I only found out about these last night as I'd stumbled across this photo and fell in lurve:
My first thought was it looked like a cool take on one of those Soviet Urals or Aelitas or whatever they were (which I'd been considering for a build for ages now) but, you know, playable.
So, yeah, these look rad but are probably unobtanium.

Yeah that's a first act Pete Adams is playing there. John has one as well that is pretty tits.
They're also big fans of those 80s Yamaha SGs.
It'd be interesting to see what the pricing on these God City guitars is.
They have this weird one bolt for the neck as well, with a really square heel. I'd be keen to hear what the deal with that is.
