Reichardt Guitars Quilted Maple 8-String Multiscale

When you talk about fine, custom, handmade instruments, it’s not hard to imagine what makes these instruments stand out. This 24-fret handmade 8-string guitar was imagined from the thought process of “get the guitar out of the way, so I can play it”. The neck carve is a straight no taper C, which feels the same at the 1st fret as it does at the 15th fret. As the neck comes into the body, the heel has been carved away for unlimited access. The top is a stunning Quilted Maple. The body is classic figured Sapele. The bound, Ebony fretboard on top of a Flamed Maple neck adds attack and snap to the overall guitar. Top it off with an Elysian hand-wound pickup set and your imagination is the only thing that could hold you back.
