A hand-built beauty from 2018 by Andy Weber at Whale Hazard guitars in South Minneapolis! This Whalehazard Siren is a unique take on the LP Style guitar but with custom/premium features that set it apart from the vast ether of single cut guitars. 

From Andy at Whalehazard: 

This Siren was featured at the 2018 Vancouver International Guitar Festival.  This is probably my favorite wood combination, and you can't go wrong with tortoiseshell binding.  Incredibly warm sounding, and has a little extra punch and clarity from the Lollar Staple P90 in the neck position. A Chet Atkins Bigsby B5 with Callaham roller upgrades gives this a really classic feel with some improved functionality. A slightly thicker round neck profile will make you want to play this all day. Fretboard inlays feature hand-engraved detail.
