This blues-style acoustic line is a blend of a 1900s Martin 000 and a Chicago-made 1930s Regal 061.
Each features an all-Mahogany body, Sapele neck, and Pau Ferro fretboard for a balanced, full sound with the focused, rootsy vibe of a 1930s blues guitar.

Custom architectural elements are integrated directly into the build.
The floating pickguard is milled from old-growth cypress salvaged from Fitzgeralds interior paneling.

Custom fretboard inlay is inspired by the historic stained glass in the Sidebar.
The rosette is stained Fitzgeralds green.
