The Shark Guitar

The Shark features a lightweight baked-ash offset body, a flame maple neck, and a pau ferro fingerboard. Its versatile voice covers everything from bright, clean surf tones to aggressive, high-gain roar. Offered with single-coil pickups, humbuckers, or a combination of both, it can deliver chimey twang or gritty, saturated drive depending on how you set it.

TOTAL GUITAR COST: $2,400

A minimum down payment of 50% ($1,200) is required to begin construction of the guitar. Once this deposit is received, we will schedule your build, source materials, and begin work according to the agreed specifications. The remaining balance will be due prior to final delivery or pickup, at which point we will perform a final inspection and setup to ensure the instrument meets our quality standards. If you prefer, we can provide a detailed payment schedule and timeline for milestones such as wood selection, routing, finishing, and setup. Please contact us to confirm specifications and expected completion dates.

The DC6

The DC 6 is a meticulously crafted instrument that blends classic tonewoods with modern hardware for superior playability and sound. Its richly grained mahogany body provides warm, resonant low end and sustain, while the slim maple neck offers stability and a bright, articulate attack. A smooth rosewood fingerboard with understated dot inlays delivers a comfortable fretting surface and a familiar, organic feel under the hand.

At the heart of the DC 6’s voice are custom Ultra‑Clarifier humbuckers engineered for clarity, dynamic response, and reduced noise—ideal for everything from warm cleans to punchy, high‑gain tones. Precision Hipshot open‑gear tuners ensure accurate, reliable tuning and a pleasing vintage aesthetic, while a bespoke bridge with a string‑through design enhances resonance and contributes to long-lasting sustain and balanced string tension.
