2005 Myka Sungazer Goldtop

This guitar is the result of a wonderfully creative collaboration between Rob Taylor and myself. Together we are very happy to introduce the new Sungazer^TM guitar. Rob is the designer and new owner of the first Sungazer^TM (#029). Rob provided a full scale drawing of the shape and envisioned the modern classic goldtop vibe. I added some of my own touches to the tailpiece, f-holes, and overall layout. The result is a very fresh new instrument design that plays and sounds as good as it looks.

Although the Goldtop finish and vintage styling looks quite natural with this design this guitar can be fully customized to suit your needs and aesthetic preferences.
