Zerberus Guitars / Evil Morpheus / 2015 / Honey-Amber / Guitar

After two Years of hard work, I have finished a new Evil Morpheus. I have used some checker-flamed Australian Eucalyptus top on a Mahogany body. A beautiful Lacewood fretboard and a multi layer neck glued deep into the body. This is the first time that I use my new pickup frame design (hope you like it) and my new poti knobs.
I have those knobs made by a precision machining company and my design allows me to lay in knobs that I make of the top lumber. In this case I have used flamed Ash because the shimmer 3D effect is much deeper for such small piece. I have used Entwistle X3 humbuckers on that Evil Morpheus. Those pickups have a lot of powerful punch but also are extremely versatile and the tonal range is incredible using the coil-split option. I think there is nothing that this guitar can´t do from Heavy to Blues and Country. I did not build this guitars as an explicit custom order. Sometimes I build guitars just to spread my creative wings and often the result is some kind of dream-guitar. Since it is not build for some specific customer, I now is free for sale. This is Evil Morpheus number #003. As all my custom guitars are, this is an unique specimen - one of its kind and completely built by my person and by my own two hands. I hope you like it end enjoy the pictures. I also will make a small video of that guitar soon. Thanks for watching and keep on rocking my friends !!!

All custom guitars are completely made by only one luthier - ME.

Zerberus-Guitars is some kind of a One-Man-Show and it´s only me in the workshop.

I do all the works - drive arround to find amazing long time stored lumber - saw out the bodies and necks -shape that all by hand without using CNC machines - equipp the hardware - install the electronis - paint the guitars and so on......I also take the photos and make the website.

No step of my work is done by someone else.

That makes the guitars very unique.

Building such a handmade unique specimen takes at least 6 months.

For making my custom guitars, I don´t use computer controled CNC-machines.

I do all the routings and carvings by hand and so I am not restricted to any standard designs.

I come from a very musical family.

My grandfather played trumpet in a band and my father is a professional rock´n roll guitarist in my region.

On the other hand my ancestors have been very skilled craftsmen who worked as makers of wood cartweels (Grand-grandfather) and wood barrels (Grandfather).

My father does not have a hand for woodworking :)

But he is a lifetime Rock guitarist.

So in my person the two rows come together being a rock guitarist that also loves woodworking :)

I have inherited some woodworking tools from my grand-grandfather that I still use when building my handcrafted custom guitars.

When I was 14, I have built my first guitar with the help of an old luthier.

Later in 1992 I had my own design company and I specialised in guitar design (have played in several bands this time).

Later in 2002 I founded my very own guitar company Zerberus-Guitars and fullfiled one of my biggest childhood dreams with that.

Is it your dream to own an instrument that is the only one of its kind on the planet, as individual as you - the owner, an instrument that is lovingly handcrafted, using selected timbers and the finest hardware, to satisfy your very own aesthetics, needs and personal preferences?

In my Custom Shop, I specialize in carefully hand-building the kinds of guitars and basses that reflect the DNA of their players. I do not employ CNC-machines which mechanically churn out half-finished guitar bodies every few minutes. By contrast, all carving, assembly and finishing is performed by one skilled craftsman, so that my guitars can not be clones of any models made previously.

Each instrument leaving my Custom Shop is a unique specimen.  And not being restricted to proprietary designs, I am able to develop very individual guitars and basses in response to the originality and inspiration of our clients.

If you have any questions do not hesitate to contact us.
