The Spade was our first headless design and has continued as a “flagship” with players around the world using it across many genres of music.
we wanted to use the design of the Spade and modify it into a modern, full body guitar. We worked on a few initial ideas only to end up frustrated, as the designs were not up to our standards. My partner Ken suggested we hire a friend of his (a renowned Japanese designer) to help dial in the designs we had started. With his guidance, the Absinthe design was finalized and approved!
