Inspired by a custom order from three-time Grammy-winning singer-songwriter/producer ‘Joe Henry, with input from his long-standing guitar confidant and luthier/owner of Folkway Music, Mark Stutman, we are excited to make this 0002H Custom T available as a special limited run of 24 instruments.
In addition to being our first-ever Traditional Series 000 offering, the guitar features a deeper body for enhanced volume and low-end definition, while its 24 7/8” scale length and lightweight T-Series build provides a looser, more open feel with a strong fundamental focus. The dark vintage-style sunburst, slotted peghead, and pyramid bridge also complement its Traditional appointments and ultra-thin, all-nitrocellulose lacquer finish.
Collectively, these design and build features make for a standout combination of tonal depth, responsiveness, and effortless playability — one that makes an immediate impression upon first strum and invites further musical exploration.
