Chris DiPinto plays guitars and makes guitars right here in Philadelphia. And he does both very, very well. So being a Philadelphian guitar craftsmen, and a local guitar god, he decided to make a guitar he calls The Philadelphian.

And it’s a truly beautiful creation. A classy single cutaway, arched top hollow body delight. Single humbucker pickup, pretty block inlay on a rosewood neck. Two knobs: tone and volume (keep it simple). Headstock’s wide and graceful. Looks like a six you might see hangin’ round that handsome Chet Atkins fellow from Tennessee. But it was born here in Philly, you see?

It comes in natural color with chrome hardware or honeyburst with gold. The Philadelphian sells for between $700 and $1000, which is a steal for an instrument that’s so masterfully crafted.

If you’d like to pluck it, go see Chris at his shop in Fishtown.
