Rick Toone can be summarized in one word: innovator. He is constantly looking at ways to redefine guitar — in both construction, materials, and hardware.
Common to many of his designs are:
- Natural wood and shapes (very raw natural wood shapes)
- Headless
- Special, dedicated, patent-pending hardware for bridges, tuning
- Control locations in non-standard places
It’s definitely a unique look that is non-conventional. A combination of modern and natural design.
