Troy Post Bolt

[Poor Peter]

Howdy All, I spent an hour with Troy a couple of weeks back picking up my Bolt tribute. I can't even begin to tell you how nice this guitar is. It exceeded my expectations two fold. Thru neck, rosewood with maple and cherry. Brass nut, brass pick-up plate. Absolutely gorgeous. I went with all super 2's and the obel. Beautiful fret job, this thing plays like a dream. I still can't believe it's mine. The quality and craftsmanship that went into this build is hard to comprehend for the price I paid. If anyone is interested in a Jerry type build at a price that won't break the bank, go see him. He's not easy to find, but it's worth the effort. This kid is the real deal.

I wish he kept a better photo archive on his site, he's built some cool stuff.

Pictures, please!

[Poor Peter]

I don't know how to post a picture. I'll have to read up on how to do that. You should go see him, looks like you guys are almost neighbors.

I am going to go see him.....to pick up the guitar he's currently working on for me.

You won't be disappointed. What is he building for you? I checked out the Siberian Tiger he was working on while I was there. Beautiful.

Hey Peter,

He's making me a wolf. W/quilted maple top/back & five piece/through neck. I'll share pics when I get it. I'm going to go see him, and pick it up. Probably early April. Saying I'm psyched would be an understatement.

He had a Wolf on his bench that he was working on when I was there. Must be yours. It will definitely be worth the wait. I still can't get over how nice this guitar is. Extremely impressive for as young as he appears to be.

Oh, I can't wait. Lucky for me, it's so busy at work the days and time is flying by. I forgot to mention, purpleheart core.

I'm lucky enough to be the owner of the burled walnut pictured on his web page heading his Jerry Garcia Tribute model category, and I love it. Stunningly beautiful, easy to play and great tones. Only thing I want to do is replace the bone nut with brass.

Congrats on your new baby!

Also, he's a great guy to deal with... Took my Ibby MC400 and did some repairs on it for free while I was breaking in the Garcia tribute, which I named Wally.

Phil Jacoby in Baltimore can do it for you (and virtually anything else you can think of) as he's done for my two J-casters! Below is a pic of the top of the neck neck of the one he built me from scratch (note also his beautiful natural maple binding).

P.S. I still want you over to jam with the Thankful Dads but you keep playing hard to handle, I mean get.

I played a friends Troy Post "Wolf" last night.
'A very nice axe with a strong inherent Jerry tone.

I can easily make a nut for you.
