I unexpectedly got the guitar on Friday, but I haven't been able to put it down long enough to write to you until now. All I can say is you need to get a better camera because the pictures on your website do not do these guitars justice.

This is by far the best guitar I have ever seen or played. It is 100% perfect cosmetically, tonally, and mechanically. The neck is the perfect size and makes playing for long periods of time a breeze. I spent a lot of time tweaking it with my Vox AC30 and it has the warmest, brightest cleans and is so crisp when you turn up the drive.

I took it to Guitar Center today to try it out with some vintage Fender tube amps and pretty much every person in the guitar/amp department (employee and customer) were standing around me asking me about the guitar. Before I decided to go with you I tried out a lot of Gibson's, PRS's, and Gretsch's and I'd put this NS 3 up against any of them. Every piece of wood on it looks amazing and the inlay on the fretboard makes it! I can't wait to get this guitar into the studio and onto the stage.

Absolutely worth every penny and the wait. Thank you so much for making my dream guitar become a reality. You are a master luthier.

My name is Kevin L. Pederson, and I create each precision hand crafted guitar that comes out of Pederson Custom Guitars (formerly Abyss Guitar Company). From custom electric guitars, custom archtop guitars, custom semi hollowbody guitars to high end acoustic investment guitars, they are all custom and hand made with great care and excellent quality.

The advantage of handcrafted work is in the details. We at Pederson Custom Guitars are proud to introduce the Drea Armani, a new custom archtop suitable for jazz / rock. This guitar features a 15" body with a player-focused design.

We also are offering new headstock for 2008 and continue to enhance our custom offerings that distinguish our guitars. We can create custom inlay designs and build handcrafted pickup covers. Whether you are in the market for a hand-made boutique guitar or just a great Standard Electric, we have the options for you to choose the instrument that best suits your playing needs.

Identity is what it is all about and you will need an unique guitar to stand out, something that sets you apart and makes you feel special to play. We offer you some incredible guitars with the vibe that marks a great artist. So set yourself apart from the rest and be part of the Pederson Custom Guitars legacy.
