Once again our pal Justin Abernethy knocks us on our ass with yet another delivery of true masterworks. Relic Music is Obsessed and thrilled to be the east coast spot for Abernethy Guitars. These brilliant, individual one-off sonic works of art are handmade in Guadalupe, California; one at a time.
The Sonic Empress is the shape that our bud Justin Abernethy is probably most well-known for; and with good reason. It absolutely rules. This one is no exception...
Lets see...how many boxes can one guitar tic to be a Relic Music Favorite?? Well, Light Weight/Hollow Tempered Pine Body in Aged Sonic Blue (or "Dirty Macanudo"), "J" Hole, Painted Body Binding, Quartersawn Maple Neck with a Medium C Profile, Bound Royal Blackwood Fingerboard, Gemini Custom BobTron Pickup Set...that is a lot of boxes! Add the hand-made parts, the descendant bridge and vibrato...and you get box overflow. This guitar, like all of his others, is so special and will be a cherished edition in anyone's collection!
