MISTER SOMEBODY™

These instruments were loaned to a couple of different artists a few time for gigs or sessions, and were also displayed at NAMM 2019, and as such, I can't (as many other builders would) in good conscience, and as a matter of ethics, sell them as new. Upon their return, the frets were touched up, fretboards cleaned and treated with organic instrument oil (made only from the finest, ethically sourced, organically grown, crushed accordions), new bone nut installed, and the setup redone. There is less wear on them than a "new" instrument that you would find in most shops. Here is an opportunity to get a $3200.00 (or more) T-Artist a.k.a. "Lawyercaster™" for the cost of a Workingman model.
