GFI Ultra S-10 Keyless Custom Short Scale

[C E Holden]

Single frame GFI, custom built by Gene Fields, 22-1/2" short scale guitar, 3&5, Emmons setup with case. Lightweight, and takes up very little real estate on stage. Short scale good for bar slants, but it's not short on sustain or tone! Super playing and sounding little guitar. Guitar weighs 27 pounds out of the case, and 44 pounds in the case. It's got some nicks and dings, but it's a solid guitar. The holes you see in some of the pictures were left after the removal of custom-made palm and wrist levers used by Kurt Kowalski (formerly his guitar after Gene). I figure this is a $1600-$1700 dollar guitar, but because of the holes and dings and such, asking $1350 plus shipping. PM me if you have any questions--I can't seem to send or receive emails through the Forum anymore. Thanks--Craig

Not only does this guitar sound great.
It is light and will fit in an overhead airline bin for fly gigs.
Gene designed it for that.
There were only two built to my knowledge.
This one of mine... Now Craig's...
And Fred Newell has one and plays the fire out of it.

This also is 22 1/2 scale same as the Stringmasters that are sought after for bar slant ability.. Remember, Gene worked for Fender.

This is a very special guitar.

Yes, it has some rash, but, it is all character marks.

Great deal.

What a cool little steel! Some years ago I had a GFI Ultra keyless 3x5. I had my D-10 Emmons for the stage, but the GFI for the motel room to woodshed and pick for the hang after shows. Someone needs to snag this baby!
