My homage to Lloyd Loar , The Red Sky Deluxe has a long tradition in my guitars. Hand carved and selected premium woods. Built around the iconic sixteen inch carved top guitar, it started out as the Red Sky and then by orders of customizations and re-orders, it became one of my flag ship models. Hence it earned itself the deluxe designation. My efforts are to maximize the fun and creativity out of each one and yet keep the aesthetic vision of the unique design going.
