Something a bit different here. It’s the “BJS-EMA” (Big Jim Sullivan – Electric:MIDI:Acoustic). American Black Walnut body, with a Mahogany neck and Abalone & Mother of Pearl inlays give this custom electric a very special feel and look. Seymour Duncan Classic 59 neck and Jeff Beck bridge humbuckers, switched for single taps and outer or inner modes on push / pull volume and tone controls. With 3 way switch, gives 21 options. Fishman piezo TOM bridge & 3 way switch for mix with humbuckers. Roland GK 3 internal MIDI unit, fully switchable with both the humbuckers and the piezo bridge.

And here's Big Jim Sullivan playing it.

A beautiful looking and sounding Pheonix with wild figured Cocobolo back and sides, topped with a master grade 'bear claw' spruce soundboard.

I spend as much time perfecting the inside of a guitar as the outside. The soundboard needs to be light yet strong and all inside edges sharp and surfaces smooth.  No rough edges or joins that would decrease its efficiency as an 'air pump.'
