Headless Mirus custom guitar

Headless Mirus

Single-cut modern

Organic curves. Unbounded comfort.

The Headless Mirus carries the deep-set pocket and six-point bolt-on construction of the Mirus into a more compact, centrally balanced instrument. Removing mass beyond the nut brings the guitar closer to the player without sacrificing the familiar single-cut feel.

Individual bridge tuners and a compact string-lock system support extended-range configurations while preserving the Mirus's resonance, sustain, organic curves, and all-around comfort.

Flat-Top

A clean, uncarved profile that can accommodate a figured-wood drop top, with a slight arm bevel added for comfort.

Headless Mirus Semi-Carve body carve

Semi-Carve

The same thickness as the flat top, with graceful carving for added depth, comfort, and figured tops.

Headless Mirus Full-Carve body carve

Full-Carve

The most extreme carve: flowing lines, greater comfort, and reduced weight. Not offered with figured tops.
