Please read carefully. This specific guitar is newly complete and is being taken to Fretboard Summit Aug 20-22, 2026. It will be for sale at the event. A clear Lexan cover will be added to the back of the guitar. You can reserve it now with a deposit and pick it up at the show or I will ship it to you the following week. Let's talk before you hit the pre-order button.
This Inca Silver guitar has our new FGFB bender unit. There are big time advantages to this new string bender device. This bender was designed with and for touring/studio musicians that wanted to get on a plane or tour bus with one guitar instead of several. It can be used as a B Bender, as a G Bender or as a 3Bender.
There is a demo video above explaining the FGFB Bender features. We have a full playlist of FGFB demo videos on our 3Bender YouTube channel.
- The instrument has an On/Off switch for the B Bender and for the G Bender.
- The switches can be turned On/Off individually or together.
- You can use any gauge of string.
- The G bender lever can be tuned to either half step or whole step. It only takes about 30 seconds to retune the bent note.
- An A bender lever can be added as a palm lever
The Inca Silver model features:
- Mild Relic finish.
- Carondelet T Duet pickup in the bridge and a Carondelet Sessioner in the neck position. She can sound kind or mean. ๐ ๐ ๐น
- Quartersawn chunky sized maple slab board neck.
- Lightweight Ash body. The guitar weighs 8 lb 2 oz.
- Mastery bridge with locked saddles
- Custom pickguard.
- Gotoh Vintage Style Locking Tuners.
- HyperionTone harness with CTS pots, proprietary treble bleed circuit and NOS Sprague cap for those Roy Buchanan type swells.
- A new and unique gray metallic powder coated FGFB top plate with stainless fasteners.
The guitar body style was inspired by Rick Kelly's Drophorn model and an image of a guitar being played by Dean Porter (I'll include the image here) when he played with Little Jimmy Dickens. We think the see through F hole custom pickguard and the bigger cutaway give the guitar a futuristic look when compared to other more traditional shapes. We also think the sound is 80% T style, 10% Ric and 10% ES335. YMMV.
