This is a rare custom Tippin 000 12 Fret crafted from breathtaking Quilted African Mahogany and Carpathian Spruce. This is one of the prettiest 000s you’ll ever see. In Bill’s typical fashion he allowed the wood to shine on this one. This combination of woods give a great woody tone with good growl and lots of headroom. Carpathian behaves a lot like Adirondack Spruce. This is a superb guitar for blues, rags and Celtic music but you’ll use it for everything. A great Tippin.

What a naturally beautiful guitar. Bill Tippin used his finest woods including quilted African Mahogany and let the wood be showcase for the eyes and the ears. The voice has that wonderfully complete Tippin voice. It's no wonder Al Petteway now plays a Tippin or that Tony McManus recorded with one for his Maker's Mark album, Bill Tippin is as good as they come and this guitar is superb.
Bill's 000-12 fret is one of the best. This one is great sounding and beautiful as well with it's quilted African Mahogany back and sides and curly maple trim.
