I once had some wood, or should I say, it once had me…
Kristian ordered his custom Bandsman through our online shop from the comfort of his home in Norway. We have many guitars all over the world but this will be a one of a kind in the country where it is going. A search through the wood room turned up these particularly stunning pieces. You can watch this guitar being made as I will make regular progress updates here on the blog. I can’t wait to see it myself!
Body wood
The back of the body is a single piece of mahogany and will be capped with Flame Maple.
