Default Michael Tuttle Guitars

I recently stumbled into a Michael Tuttle T style guitar and it was my first ever “wow” moment with a guitar. It is very light, made from ash. The neck and fret work Michael does is phenomenal! Stainless steel frets feel amazing on this 11-or-so year old guitar. The ease of playing this guitar is crazy.

Notes sustain similar to my other Tele with a compressor on!

I wasn’t familiar with Tuttle instruments before but I am very on board now! It is everything I want in a T style guitar. Vintage inspired but not trying to be historically accurate (subtle belly cut, convenient truss rod placement).

If you ever encounter one, pick it up and play it!

Also acquired a Vox AC30CC2 recently and these two get along very well!

I've never heard of Tuttle guitars before so I just checked out their website. Great looking guitars, and pricey. Oregon built.

How did you stumble upon the T?

Oh, BTW, Congrats! Sounds like you have an amazing guitar.

I posted this just before an off the grid vacation a week or so ago. Probably not great timing.

I wasn’t familiar with Tuttle but was offered a trade, looked into them and then when I played it I had to have it. It blew me away!
