Kirk Sand Guitars are renowned for their handcrafted perfection, unmatched playability and beautiful resonant tone. He built custom guitars for Lenny Breau, Chet Atkins, Riche Sambora, Jerry Reed, Tommy Emanuel, Kevin Eubanks and Doyal Dykes. This guitar is his most konw model like the one Doyle Dykes plays on the tribute to kirk when he passed in 2023 in the video link below. This guitar has the Richard Mclish (AMC acoustic gold) pickups with the polydrive II active electronics (a pickup for each string, very expensive, this guitar has the preamp in the RMC 2 guitar pedal rather than in the guitar). Robin Luke had the opportunity to visit Kirk at this guitar shop in Laguna Beach and spend time in his work shop. "He told me that Chet Atkinis was his idol, and that he went to the Chet Atkins society to give him a guitar like mine. He took it, played it, and asked Kirk minutes later how mucxh they sell for. Kirk said (at that time) $4,000. CHet went over to his sportcoat and wrote a check for $4000 and told Kirk 'Don't ever give one of thes to anyone for free'! He then went to Henry Juszkiewicz, the president of Gibson, and said that this is the guitar you should be making! It manifested into the production of the look alike Chet Atkins nylon string modeland steel string model that Dave Mathews made famous"!
