Welcome to the Unquendor Guitars workshop for a new Guitar building series.
In this second episode I start making the body for this guitar.
The Spirit of Elegance and Speed
“The Nessa is a contemporary reimagining of the iconic ‘Super Strat’ guitars of the 1980s and the first guitar model in the Unquendor guitars line-up, blending cutting-edge performance with timeless style. Inspired by Nessa, the graceful yet powerful character from J.R.R. Tolkien’s The Silmarillion, this model embodies her vitality, precision, and unyielding spirit.”
In Tolkien’s legendarium, Nessa is celebrated for her unmatched speed and elegant movements, dancing with a grace that captivates all who witness her. The Nessa guitar reflects this essence, delivering effortless playability and dynamic versatility, empowering players to move seamlessly between intricate solos and commanding riffs.
