Designed a decade ago, at the same time as I designed my headstocks. Named after the Cygnus or Swan constellation, due to its sweeping curves, this guitar is a homage to the single cut guitars of the 50s with a number of modern touches.
A much more ergonomic design and feel, redesigned neck heel, dovetail neck joint, simplified control lay out and striking chamfered edges. This makes for a comfortable and highly enjoyable playing experience. 24.75" scale, 12 " radius.
This was the original prototype of the Cygnus and the finish has aged beautifully, showing signs of natural weather checking.
