this is a 2018 southsider.

highly upgraded.

these were $12,500 new and are "no longer in production". so what that typically means is "still in production".  

a very thick redwood top. unbelievable carved top 3D bell tone.

this guitar is beyond words and cannot be replicated, each one is totally custom and very different than the next. this is the rolls royce echopark, the flagship model. this is the crow killer. i've owned 3 echopark crows, they don't come close to doing what this does. this is the #1 echopark of all time, if you ask me. beats the joe perry and josh homme guitars i've played, easily. 

11lbs which is has a lot to do with what makes it great. 

frets glued in by a pro. frets leveled by a pro. new nut. new electronics. like all echoparks, the radius of the nut didn't match the saddles or frets. every guitar gets the same treatment. this guitar was great to begin with. but now it's exceptional. it's over the top tonally, nothing comes close. blow away any les paul on earth. any. 

brass tailpiece added, which is when the guitar became the best guitar in the world. the brass tailpiece opened it up and put it over the top. no holes drilled, could be converted back to ABR1 style, but that would be a mistake. includes original case and COA.
