While instruments in production are being worked on, we assemble all the hardware and small parts in these boxes in our setup area. The plan is to have everything we need when the instrument comes back from finish. It’s an interesting peek into what's going on this week in the shop. Looking at this week's array, we marvel at how fortunate we are to be building instruments for Slash, Steve Miller, and Dave Matthews (DMB) along with great stores Alto Music (NY) and TrueTone (Santa Monica) in the bunch.

Avante 12 string Gryphons are back in stock at select dealers and here in the shop.

This new batch looks and sounds great. They are available in Natural and Burst.

Cost is $1,449 and includes a soft case and shipping to Continental US

Check out our In-Stock Instruments to purchase or for more information.

Thanks,

Joe and the Team

Here's Jimmy playing Dave Mathews' newest Bari 12-string, tuned B to B

If you’re looking for a subtle, subdued look for your next doubleneck, you might choose a slightly more understated approach than our customer did for this piece. Standard-tuned 6/12 with Duncan pickups all around. It’s a killer guitar – compact, only 9.5 lbs, great balance (no neck dive), totally ergonomic.

What started out as a compact 14" hollowbody Jazz style guitar is now the Veillette Lyric.

We refined the original design for a more expressive voice that can do rock, roots, Jazz, Blues, and more.

Both visually and technically it’s an instrument of beauty. The vision was to embody the wonderful elements of those big jazz guitars into a smaller profile that offers extreme playability, comfort, weight, balance and perfect intonation throughout its entire neck. The single pickup is voiced to ensure a wide dynamic range and perfectly amplify every subtle nuance of the player.
