Don Grosh Guitars has created a number of interesting and slightly different guitars over the years.  don-grosh-guitars-bent-top-customOne of these is their Bent Top Custom model.  This guitar features a classic maple/mahogany body that’s combined with some of the most popular features and elements from the Grosh Retro Classics line.  The Bent Top Custom guitars are all made from master grade mahogany that is topped with maple.  The maple tops are then bent over the arm contour, giving the guitar its name.  Because of this amazing look and the great tone provided by them, the Bent Top Customs are some of Don Grosh Guitar’s most popular relic guitars.  They come in both front routed and rear routed versions—the front routed features a pickguard, while the rear routed does not.  Also, the front routed instruments make a more traditional sound, while the rear routed ones have a more modern tone.

There are several other options available with the Don Grosh Guitars Bent Top Custom.  Players can purchase the guitar in either T or S shapes.  Three bridges are available: the Gotoh 1088T, a floyd rose, or a flat mount.  Likewise, there are a number of different pickup combinations to choose from.  All in all, this incredibly versatile instrument is both incredibly beautiful to see and to hear, and the fact that it’s so customizable means you can truly make it your own.
