Description: Straight from my Collection Vault - A 2020 Jerry Garcia ROSEBUD Tribute by Rusch Custom Guitars - a Tribute to Doug Irwin who built and designed many of Jerry's guitars for the Grateful Dead. Dead Mint condition - Collector Maintained and ZERO playing wear. Where a Fender Stratocaster meets a Gibson Les Paul, Alembic and high-end Boutique Guitars, ROSEBUD was made famous as the guitar Doug Irwin built to replace TIGER. Some patina on the brass as it oxidizes. The build was a Custom, made to order build - one -of-a-kind. There are 27 people on Rusch's wait list and, according to his website, he will no longer make Custom builds - normally a 2+ year wait time. He claims he will only make one guitar at a time to be listed for sale AFTER he completes his current back log of orders. Christmas comes early for one lucky buyer!
