Custom built midi guitars

Welcome to MusicNet.biz

The guitars in these photos are custom built midi capable guitars. These instruments have Honduran mahogany bodies, spruce tops, 5 piece maple and mahogany necks. The headstock design allows for a straight pull of the strings to improve tuning accuracy. I do not build guitars for resale.

SG Style Build

This guitar body is Honduras mahogany with a spruce top. The guitar is chambered to increase resonance and to relieve weight. The pickups are Lace Alumitone™ with single volume knob, tone knob, and pickup selector switch. The bridge is a Graphtech Ghost™ bridge for midi and acoustic guitar sound. Acoustic sound controls consist of a push pull knob for volume and tone. Midi control is a volume knob and an up down patch selector switch. The ghost system is powered through a separate 13 pin jack so output may be channeled to a separate amplifier. The neck is a thin taper with a 9" finger board radius, on a 24 fret bound ebony fingerboard. Tuners are Steinberger gearless with a 40:1 ratio. All hardware is black chrome.
