A genuine musical journeyman, Kris Lager brings a feel-good musical experience everywhere he goes. One of those rare and dynamic performers who deliver a combination of musical ability and charisma. Based out of Omaha, Nebraska, Kris Lager Band has been zig zagging the country spreading their brand of “Feel Good Funk & Heavy Soul” for over 15 years and is quietly establishing themselves as one of the most storied and treasured groups in the Midwest’s music scene. So it was an honor and I was thrilled when Kris approached me to build him a new custom instrument.

This T-Style with ‘Super Fat’ Black Cat from The Creamery humbucker and a modern Gotoh hardtail bridge. Solid Mahogany body with Padauk drop top, rosewood fretboard, and a natural oil finish.

The Telecaster can be customized as either a solid body or a light and resonant hollow body with a mahogany or maple neck with your choice of the fretboard. It can also be tailor-made with your choice of any number of beautiful woods for tops or bodies, as well as with your choice of hardware and pickups.
