Am awesome build by Canadian Luthier Matt Maranger. This Newhorizon 3 model features some wonderfully rich original hand-wound large humbucking pickups; mixing the tonality of a Wide Range Humbucker, Firebird pickup and Gold Foil all under one cover. While the scale is a full 25", the body is compact (yet proportionate to the rest of the build) making for a very travel friendly guitar. All in all near mint condition w/ black tolex hard shell case.
From Maranger Instruments:
"Double reclaimed Douglas Fir body (firstly from a mine shaft, which was milled into timber for a building, and these are the offcuts) with a 150 year old Black Walnut neck & a headplate of Ancient Bog Oak reclaimed from a shipwreck... this is some wood cocktail. This NH model features one of my new standard headstock models, featuring Steinberger 40:1 in line tuners. Two output matched, low impedance Neutron Lover A2 Wide Range humbuckers bring the firebird inspired growl to this lightweight shredder."
