NO LONGER AVAILABLE! 2014 Agostin Custom Drop Top Trans Black

Agostin Custom guitars are hand built in Toronto by Agostino Carella. Agostino was born in Toronto and studied the work of Jean Larrivee, but from the age of 20 lived and worked in the Bari area of Italy until his recent return. Most of Agostin distribution is in Italy.

Basing his instruments on proven designs, Agostin Custom guitars are well built, with top quality woods and components. Finishes are hand-applied nitrocellulose lacquer.

The instrument seen here is an Agostino Custom Drop Top, a traditional style. The body features a flamed maple top with black stain bringing out the curls, on a one-piece basswood back with a gloss white finish. The neck is highly figured maple with a 12 inch radius Madagascar Rosewood fingerboard, stainless steel medium frets and a Tusq nut. The neck also features two carbon fibre reinforcement rods and a two-way adjustable truss rod.

For hardware, Hipshot locking tuners and a Gotoh 510 bridge with a steel block. The pickups include a pair of Agostin Custom wound single coil pickups and a Bare Knuckle Rebel Yell humbucker in the bridge position with a push/push coil split.

This is an excellent instrument - well made, visually striking, very comfortable to play, and with a great sound.
