Question

Answer
Choice  & Personalization  No company anywhere offers as many choices. Abstract is a True Custom Guitar.

Ed Roman has been building Abstract Guitars for more than 20 years, There have been over 225 different body shapes made. Some of these were one of a kind creations custom designed by customers. Some of them were really cool, The basic concept of Abstract guitars is to give the customer exactly what he or she wants.

Models like the Rockingbird, CaligulaMaximus have been extremely successful and have been selling very well. Some models like the the Mysterion have been less than what we had hoped for. It's been a lot of fun coming up with new ideas, and copying old models that have been discontinued. The object has always been to build the absolutely best highest quality guitars that we could.
