  • Watermelon Music is please to announce that we have not one, but two of these coveted guitars in stock!!  After receiving near-perfect marks in reviews from all the major guitar magazines, Talladegas have been in short supply.  One of ours is a one-off custom piece in transparent black, built for the 2008 NAMM Show, the other is the standard amberburst finish shown in the photo.

     

    "Tone Quest" Magazine had this to say in their review:

     

    "Playing the Talladega, you quickly notice how the 25.5" scale really gives this guitar a phenomenal range and feel.  The lightweight, chambered mahogany body coupled with the Hamer sustain block bridge produces extraordinary sustain, and the 4-position series/parallel pickup configuration develops tones that range from full, bright and chimey with a huge bottom end on the bridge, a warm and focused neck pickup with outstanding string definition, and series and parallel tones that range from the sound of a heavy and thick, old school P90, to a beautifully mellow, semi-hollow acoustic voice.  Some say that the Talladega sounds like both a Gibson and a Fender...We believe the Talladega asserts its own voice."

     

    "...the other musical fruit"
