This is a *Museum Quality Replica* meticulously hand crafted using the finest materials. A faithful recreation of Jerry Garcia's famed "Wolf" guitar by Luthier Greg DeLuis. Completely hand crafted with modern fit and finish standards in mind. When Tiger & Wolf were showcased at the MET in 2019 I was able to take very detailed and up close photographs of these guitars on which I based by templates and informed my building process. My aim is to create the MOST faithful example, both visually and sonically, using the time tested and handcrafted methods that were utilized when creating the original pieces. Standard Wolf Top Inlay and inlays up the fretboard are Synthetic Ivory with Mother of Pearl "first fret Gull" inlay. As an upgrade, we can use Mastadon Ivory all the way up the fingerboard. As with all DeLuis Guitars, all inlay is done in shop, by me, by hand. I mention this repeatedly throughout my catalog because using CNC instead of hand cutting has become an industry norm, and I always want to honor Old World craftsmanship by utilizing skill, patience and practice in regards to the art of inlay. The original Wolf, done by Luthier Doug Irwin, was also hand cut.
