Stephen Marchione's Uni-body guitar is a rare and extraordinary instrument, crafted only when he finds the perfect piece of wood. This model cannot be custom-ordered due to the meticulous precision required. Over the past decade, Stephen has built only six of these guitars, each showcasing his 30 years of luthier expertise.
Made from a single piece of torrefied poplar, the Uni-body guitar offers exceptional resonance and stability with no glue joints, resulting in a pure, vibrant tone. Stephen compares it to hitting a baseball perfectly: every note rings true. Its minimalist design emphasizes the beauty of the wood and craftsmanship. The guitar is in clean condition with some light and inconspicuous finish scratches. There is a degree of finish wear at the very top of the headstock, though it is also minute.
