2013 Wingert EVC Steampunk, Cocobolo/German Spruce
We adore this work of functional art. Kathy Wingert is one of our favorite builders and we’ve loved working with her for years now. Back in 2013 she executed an exclusive few Steampunk model EVC guitars, which we’ve been lucky enough to have visited with in the intervening years. Here’s one decked out with Cocobolo back and sides and German Spruce on top that’s a delight for both the eyes and the ears. The voice is balanced from bass to treble in the kind of way that gives chords consistent and even clarity and definition; it’s fantastic as a fingerstyle guitar. Visually, the soundhole is ringed in with a rosette of copper and cogs, which motif is continued across the headstock. There you’ll also find delicate pipework and a clear portal through the center so you can see the cogs from both the front and the back. For creature comforts we have a Ryan-style arm bevel and a venetian cutaway and a 25 1/4” scale that’s equal parts easy playability and power.

2013 Wingert Steampunk E: goggles and timepiece not included. Here Kathy Wingert has married gorgeous tonewoods—Cocobolo and Carpathian Spruce—with copper, cogs, pipework, and gears for a steampunk effect guaranteed to stand out from the crowd.
On top of that, Wingert has added a Ryan-style arm bevel, interrupted rosette, Gotoh HAPA tuners, and Fishman pickup. The trebles are juicy and charged, and we love the smooth and effortless playability along the fretboard. The slightly wider neck (1 13/16” at the nut) is a delight for the fingerstylist, and the Venetian Cutaway helps keep those pesky upper frets dust-free. Wrapped up in a Hoffee flight case, this Wingert will travel safe and sound every step of the way as you travel between steampunk conventions and China Miéville readings.
Don’t worry, we made sure to wipe up the oil spills and mustache wax: this steampunk Wingert is ready to roll out of the station today.
