Tom (mezzy) Hiles said… - Thanks Mad Dog for the video comment! I pretty much have gotten to the point that I have too many orders to list for sale guitars do to the fact that they are all sold before they are built. I do custom builds still, but mostly sell to a friend in Rio Nido, California who sells them on his site .
Check it out http://www.vintage47amps.com
This man hand make reproductions of 1947 tube amps . They are incredible amps and are used by me, Moreland and Arbuckle, and Billy Gibbons. They are featured in Guitar Player magazine this month. My builds are available there, I send him 3 a week currently but they have been selling out in 3 hrs. He is now talking about 10 a week for him. I would be glad to talk with anyone interested in a custom build as well. I can be contacted @ blackwatermez@hotmail.com.

- Thank you for your comment. My large CBG was built by James Millinchuk, a local builder here in NJ. He has built guitars for Sting and Springsteen. I found the box on ebay. It had to be cut down because it was too thick. It is a turn of the century box from S.S.Pierce, an importer of Jam and Jellies. The neck is off of my rebuilt 1935 National Duolian. The cone and plate are new. The tailpiece is handmade out of brass. Enjoy.
