"I personally consult with all of my customers in order
to ascertain what they envision as their perfect sounding and playing guitar.
My personal dedication and careful attention to every detail assures each
customer that their instrument will be the finest available. For years I have
been performing “live” with my prototype guitars. This fusion of practical
experience and fine craftsmanship has resulted in instruments that offer a
unique presence and tonal quality like no other." - Cue
