The Hellhound - OO

 The Hellhound OO model pays homage to the vintage blues boxes of the 1930s, designed especially for acoustic blues aficionados seeking an instrument with character and soul. Inspired by the timeless legacy of blues legends like Robert Johnson and early acoustic blues musicians, this little guitar packs a powerful bark that demands attention on stage or during laid-back home sessions. Its smaller size body provides exceptional comfort for couch jamming and easy handling on any stage, making it the perfect companion for expressive blues playing.


Crafted with the spirit of the classic Gibson L-OO in mind, the Hellhound embodies the irresistible charm of old small body guitars. But don't be fooled by its size—this guitar has a big voice. Its clear notes and impressive sustain create an unforgettable sound that captures the essence of acoustic blues. With its lightweight construction and rich tonal character, the Hellhound delivers a soulful and authentic blues experience.


Unleash the spirit of the blues with the Hellhound, and let its distinctive sound and vintage appeal elevate your playing to new heights. Whether you're performing in intimate settings or larger venues, the Hellhound is here to resonate with your passion for acoustic blues and become your faithful companion.
