sukop instruments
Description
The Sukop Bass is a custom handmade instrument designed for the most discriminating player. Each Sukop Bass is made with a five-piece laminated neck constructed from hard Maple, Purpleheart and Black Walnut with a Wenge fingerboard. The necks are reinforced using a steel truss rod which is cast in epoxy resin to add strength, density and sustain. A heel-less neck-through-body design permits unobstructed access to all 24 frets. The lightweight body creates superb resonance and balance, while exotic wood tops add subtle tonal variations and beauty. Each body is individually hand-carved to match the radius of the fingerboard, giving the entire instrument a constant radius and each string a more consistent feel. All Sukop Basses feature custom designed Bartolini hum-cancelling soapbar pickups with active circuitry, Gotoh tuners, a custom design Dingwall bridge, and a brass nut. Models are available in 4, 5 and 6-string, fretted and fretless. Sukop Basses are made in USA and come with a limited lifetime warranty.

Forbidden Fruit Guitars: Stringy but tasteful custom 12-string resonator guitars.
I'm Paul Norman, Renaissance man. Why give myself such a title? I used to believe that only those who have spent most of their working lives building stringed instruments were entitled to the exalted title of luthier. I am a relative newcomer, having studied guitar making for nearly 6 years ...

Lucas Guitars:
I was born in Lincoln, England in 1957 and began playing guitar at the age of fourteen. I later studied architecture, and left college with a degree and a sense of structure and form. A stint as a joiner reinforced my interest in working with wood, originally absorbed as a child in the environment of the family joinery business. Meanwhile constant activity as a musician deepened my understanding of the guitar from a player's perspective.
I began building guitars in 1990, originally building classical guitars. I added steel string acoustics soon after. I have experimented with and refined various design ideas over the years and have arrived at some unique and successful models.
During my time as a guitar maker I have illustrated a book on guitar making, 'Making Master Guitars' by Roy Courtnall (Robert Hale 1993). This has become something of a standard textbook in the field and was a real stepping stone in my own research and building methods. Subsequently I produced illustrations for 'The Art of Violin Making', by Chris Johnson and Roy Courtnall (Robert Hale 1999).
