The PalmGuitar® Custom

Available by special order only, the PalmGuitar® Custom Travel Guitar puts you in the designer’s chair. Although the range of options is limited by the small size of the instrument, various pickup, switching and control configurations are possible. If you are looking for something truly unique, like a custom baritone setup or even a four string bass, just give us a call or send eMail, and we will provide a quotation based on your needs. All Custom instruments are built on the Standard PalmGuitar® platform - specifications are the same, except for the options you specify.

 

"Custom" usually means "expensive", but unless you're interested in something like highly figured inlay, Custom options are modestly priced. In some cases, the price of a Custom can actually be lower than a Standard if certain features like the coil tapping or the concentric controls are deleted. Give us a call with your ideas.

 

The Custom 4-String Bass shown has a split Bartolini “P-Bass” style pickup, an ABM bridge, and 20:1 Gotoh tuners, and a concentric volume/tone control. A Custom 4-string Bass with a standard humbucker pickup sells for $1,499.95.
