Custom Jam City Guitar by Jim Weyandt Double Cutaway - Flametop

For sale: a custom, scratch-built electric guitar by James “Jim” Weyandt / Jam City Guitars, built using the exact specs of a 1959 Doublecut. This is a full boutique build, not a conversion, showcasing premium tonewoods, traditional craftsmanship, and incredible attention to detail.

An amazing 7 lbs 6 oz guitar.

Key Features:

• Body: 1980s Honduran mahogany
• Top: Carved Michigan flame maple, stunning figured top, hand-carved by Jim
• Neck / Fingerboard: Rosewood
• Inlays: Custom nitrate inlays
• Construction: Traditional hide-glue joinery for superior resonance and vintage feel
• Electronics: Wizz pickups (White A4 magnets), clear, dynamic, and versatile
• Controls: CTS pots
• Hardware: High-quality tuners, bridge, tailpiece
• Case: Large L&M-style Yorkville Sound hardshell included

Luthier Build Details:

• Jim Weyandt used his own 1959 Doublecut as a template to copy the exact specs for this guitar
• Made a custom dummy blank for his duplicarver to carve the maple top
• Result: a meticulously crafted, one-of-a-kind instrument that combines vintage inspiration with boutique build quality

Condition:

• Very good, typical small dings from normal play, well cared for
• ~12 years old, fully functional, sounds and plays beautifully

Why This Guitar Stands Out:

• Handmade by a respected Canadian luthier
• Premium woods + traditional hide-glue construction
• Boutique electronics (Wizz pickups)
• Unique instrument a serious player’s guitar
