Wood Forming a Whole
The foundation of this guitar is a single-piece alder body, complemented by a walnut top. That top was originally a scrap piece destined for the bin, but Honza loved it so much that we decided to use it. Both materials come from Kuba Kohout, my primary wood supplier. The neck is crafted from flamed walnut, which is not only stable thanks to carbon fiber reinforcements but also looks stunning. The ensemble is completed by a fretboard made of striking exotic ebony.

Sound and Craftsmanship
A 648 mm scale length, a bone nut, and high-quality Gotoh hardware ensure stability, reliability, and comfort. The character of the sound is driven by P90 pickups from Michal Tůma, offering an open, dynamic tone with distinct articulation. The finish combines a nitro-lacquered body with an oiled neck, allowing the guitar to resonate naturally and age beautifully.
A Personal Commission
This guitar was built in Hradec Králové and completed in June 2022. It was the second custom-made instrument created for Honza, who now owns three of my guitars. It is precisely this continuity and trust that adds another dimension to the instrument. It’s not just a combination of wood and metal, but the result of our long-standing collaboration.
