With the huge success of the sold out Wolf 2.0 collaboration with Doug Irwin and Bill Asher with rave reviews and played by John Mayer, Warren Haynes, Steve Kimock and Jason Sinay as the finest recreation ever produced.
We are now creating this "Road Dog" series Wolf to capture the sound, look and feel of the original but with simplified Inlay work, Oil and Shellac finish and more wood options available to the customer specifications and needs.
In 1978 Jerry Garcia brought the Wolf back to Doug Irwin to change out the single coil pickups with Dimarzio Cream SDS1 Single coil and two Cream Dual Sound humbuckers. The mini toggles for the humbuckers were wired for Series/Parallel along with a Source Follower Buffer by Waldotronics. Your own custom specs can be requested and we will give final cost estimates after review or your order.
