Mirus
A single-cutaway custom electric with a bolt-on neck built to feel and resonate like a set-neck, offered in 6- or 7-string configurations.
About this guitar
The most vintage-inspired of Dean Gordon’s designs, the Mirus pairs a single-cutaway body with a deep-set neck pocket and a bolt-on neck joint reinforced by two extra mounting screws for set-neck-like sustain and resonance. Offered in six- or seven-string configurations, with flat, semi-, or full-carve top options and an optional headless build. Each Mirus is a fully custom, one-of-a-kind commission.
