There's a lot to be said about a builder that stomps around in the forests of Findland in the snow, looking for the right tree. Don't think you will get much action over here on RT Gary, but there's a few on TGP that own/play them. He makes a beautiful guitar and you won't find a used one for sale. That's always a good sign. He uses Spanish cedar for back/necks and Arctic birch. Everything hand cut.

Specs are interesting.Stainless frets oddly. I read a review from a guy who could not find any guitar who's frets compared to a Suhr Plek. He stated this one was as good or even better than the Plek. The guitar sounds fantastic in the clips I have found. Surprised you haven't grabbed one Steve. The last three letters of the brand are where I am at right now. :thumbsup:

Juha's last name is really Smith but RuokanGAS sounded better.... :lol: :LOL: :lol: :LOL: :lol: :LOL:

He's got a long lead time on custom stuff. You can find a few in online stores in Europe. Put you one together on his website guitar builder software and email it to him. He will come back to you quick and will also let you know where his guitars are. There's a dealer or two in the US, but small time guys and I doubt they have any inventory.
 
Never heard of him but for the love of god does that look hot!
