Typically with Echopark the customer designs his guitar, but these inspiring Case Study guitars are fully designed and built from the ground up by Gabriel Currie, often with modifications along the way.  It's starts with a concept then the vision is slowly materialized, like a sculptor or painter. These guitars remain one-of-a-kind, and are not repeated. This guitar is 2 years in the making. 

Case study guitars have special appointments, extra attention to detail, and use truly rare, air-dried select woods and parts. It's been said that 80% of a guitar's sound, feel and vibe comes from the raw wood alone. It's becoming less of a secret that Gabe has some of the best air dried wood in the world, and he continues to amaze us from this locally found, highly prized old wood stash.  It's one thing to have old wood in good shape, and it's another thing to have old wood that's particularly useful and applicable. It is indeed, all about the wood. 

At the factory, this white La Carne was referred to as the Ferrari...and I know what he means. I believe the only other reverse stilettos are the two other La Carnes, both unpainted. One of those can be seen in Aerosmith photos, the other sold at Chicago Music Exchange for $6500.

Based on a 1960's Epiphone Wilshire, these guitars share almost nothing in common. Gabe's important, old world construction techniques are inspiring and set him apart.
