H1

The H1 guitar is a left-handed MIDI enabled guitar hand built at Crimson Guitars to the highest specs, the premium solid rosewood neck is jointed using a deep-set neck-tenon which extends all the way underneath the US made Kahler tremolo and the hand made scatter-wound pickups were created specifically for this combination of woods and hardware.  The body and neck joint have been hand carved for the ultimate in bespoke comfort and this was one of the first guitars lacquered in house at Crimson Guitars, the flawless gloss  serves to accent the locally grown flamed English maple top.  The GK-3 split pickup converts each strings energy into data that controls any guitar synth via MIDI, the up and down buttons are, uniquely, situated on the side of the guitar out of the way to preserve a clean design, the final little touches are the custom made timber control knobs and raw abalone truss rod cover and switch tip.  A unique hand built guitar from Crimson Guitars, proudly hand made in the UK.
