Sold!! MINT Custom Morrissey German/Koa...absolutely stunning!! **Price reduced**
Custom Morrissey German/Koa...absolutely stunning!!
Sale Pending Incredible woods, precision build, and tone to die for... If you're looking for that "long term keeper" guitar, this one will check that box. I had it built and absolutely love the guitar, however my playing is transitioning to smaller body guitars, or those that feel smaller. A shoulder issue is starting to show up as well. In retrospect I should have had a bevel but hindsight...after all...is 20-20. The build thread is here, and there's pretty much everything you need to know in that thread. In fact, check out post #39 as I highlight what my veteran (40 year Taylor and Martin Certified) Luthier said about this one which was: --"I'm amazed at this guy's attention to detail" --"his quality and attention to detail has got a lot on Taylor" --"the neck is perfectly straight...not like most builder's guitars I've seen over the years that have bumps or curves or whatever" --"I don't think I've ever seen a nut more precisely set than that one" --"look at the detail on the inside of that guitar...wow!" --"the tone is just amazing, and the sustain is really special" --"I've never seen better work on the fretboard and the finishing of the frets than what I'm seeing here" Build Thread here: https://www.acousticguitarforum.com/...d.php?t=490994 The thing that pleased me the most and will be the hardest thing to give up is the tone of this guitar. If you like piano-like tone, This guitar will be pleasing in every way. The guitar pics are below and this guitar also comes with a BAM case...about a $700 upgrade. Guitar and case are in MINT condition. For the record, this guitar is A few details: GA size: Lower bout 16" Master grade German Spruce Incredible (almost impossible to find) Koa Nut width-1 3/4 String width at the saddle: 2 1/4 Sound Port Gotoh antique gold tuners Gold EVO frets Five piece laminate neck Mint condition BAM CF case (Schweet!!) This guitar is currently sold as the Master series...the base price is $9800 before you add upcharges for woods etc. Price: NOW SOLD plus shipping and Paypal. I am open to reasonable offers and some trades if the cash portion is at least half of the price.

Hi Mike - I believe this is the first Morrissey I've seen for sale on the forum. His guitars might be - and this is not hype - UNMATCHED when it comes to fit & finish and just plain gorgeousness of build. Tone is grand, really deep and concussive. Although a relatively new builder, I believe Patrick has developed enough of a following so that those watching this post will know what they're looking at. Best with the sale, this is a special instrument....Robert

Stunning Mike. Even the truss rod cover is cool. I wish I could have another deal with you but this one exceeds my guitar budget. GLWS....

I was able to play Patrick's guitars at Woodstock and La Conner guitar shows and was impressed. I'll bet that German Spruce top gives this one a lovely voice. The koa back and sides aren't too shabby either. Good luck with your sale Mike. |

Thanks guys for the "bumps"! Much appreciated!!
I'd be hard pressed to think that there are many woods out there that are more pretty than Koa. So I took a couple of pictures to highlight some of it that may not have shown up in the earlier pictures. The is a beautiful, pristine guitar. It plays and sounds fantastic. Then of course is the brand new BAM case. These sell for around $800. They are super nice and very lightweight. A perfect addition to a perfect guitar!

That really is a beautiful set of Koa! I remember seeing it before the build started and even then it looked just stunning in its raw, unfinished state. I bet the laquer really makes it pop!
Beautiful guitar |

Thanks Dylan! It is certainly one of the most pretty sets of Koa I've ever owned or seen for that matter. And yes it's got that "3D" think going on big time. Lots of color depth and the colors tend to move around like tiger eye. Really pretty. Someone will love it!
