Thomas Cherry Guitars Jaeloe 2025 - Natural open grain oiled bare wood finish

My name is Thomas Cherry and I've built custom, one of a kind, hand made guitars for the last 18 years. I've been selling my guitar locally at the music store where I taught at, but the owner of the store retired, so now I'm selling my guitars online. 

If you want more pics of this guitar, video, or even a online videochat walkthrough, just message me. I have many guitars in the pipeline, so message me if you want to see pics of "in-process" guitars. Check out my previous builds at

This is a 2025 "Jaeloe" custom. 

Walnut top, Sapele Back. 3-piece Maple neck

Ebony fingerboard. 25 inch scale, 22 Stainless Steel medium frets

Graphtech Ratio Tuners (in my opinion, the best tuners on the market) 

Graphtech Tusq nut model 6061 (See Graphtech website for specs)

Gotoh wraparound bridge

Seymour Duncan SH-4/SH-2n Hot Rodded Humbucker Pickups      

Weight: 8.4 lbs  (Les Paul average 9-12lbs)

If you are buying online, please know what you are looking for in the size and shape of a neck. Width at nut 1-11/16th  (fairly standard size)

Neck Depth (fingerboard to back of neck)

1st fret = 27/32nds

6th = 30/32nds

12th = 1 inch

I would say this neck is about medium, I wouldn't say a "fat" neck, fairly average-sized "round" neck.

Once sold, I will put on a fresh set of strings of your choice, and set up guitar action according to your tastes.

Guitar comes with gig bag.

I often travel for gigs. Usually I can get a guitar boxed up and shipped out in 48hrs, but if I'm away on a gig, it might take 3-5 business days before a guitar is shipped.
