Buzz Feiten Signature Elite - Translucent Black - SOLD

The Buzz Feiten Signature Elite is his all-out, no holds barred, truly hand-built guitar. A flame maple top, cream binding and pearl inlaid neck are a few of the eye catching features of the Signature Elite, Feiten's ode to the "flame tops" from the golden age of guitar making.  He wanted to see how deep he could go, so he used his players instinct to craft this beautiful instrument, displaying extreme care and attention to detail every step of the way. The resulting warmth, expression, sustain and dynamics make the Signature Elite one you'll want to pick up and play every day. 

Buzz Feiten spent countless hours perfecting their guitars. All models feature a body shape that result in a perfectly balanced end product. If you take your hand off the neck when standing, these guitars will remain balanced. All models also have custom, hum-cancelling, Alnico5 pickups that feature a warm, vintage tone with incredible transparency and punch.

Feiten also kept player comfort in mind when designing his line of guitars. A unique comfort route will lock the guitar against your body - something you'll definitely notice when standing in performance. The custom top-load bridge offers a slightly wider string spacing, greatly improving playability and sustain. You'll get a vintage feel without the stiffness.

Customer Testimonials:

Hi Jeff (Leibovich), 

Thank you for checking in. I couldn't be happier or more pleased with my new Buzz Feiten guitar. It's sounds better and plays better than any of the 40 guitars I own.That includes any of my new custom made guitars like Tom Anderson, Suhr or any of my vintage guitars like 1953 Teleacster, 1963 Gibson 355 TDSV, or 1954 Fender Stratocaster, etc, etc.
