🎸This recent Limited Edition Rosewood Thinline Classic II is one of the most striking builds to come out of the shop this year. Bolivian Rosewood body, one-piece Indian Rosewood neck, Ron Ellis Signature humbuckers, hand-rubbed oil/varnish finish that lets every line of the grain show through. Built start to finish in Sumner, Maine.

Is this a look you’d want to see more of?

This is a CP Thornton Guitar.
Every curve, every fret, every detail, shaped by one craftsman’s hands, at his personal bench, with no shortcuts and no assembly line.

Chuck Thornton doesn’t just build guitars. He builds your guitar.

🎸 USA-made. One builder. Zero compromises.
