With the help of Jim Hurst, Gallagher designed a model to fit the needs of a versatile guitar player like Jim! The Jim Hurst Signature is a slope shoulder body with mahogany back and sides and an Adirondack spruce top. The body, fretboard, and headstock are bound with tortoiseshell, and the body has a built-in armrest. The neck has a 1 3/4″ nut spacing and big C-shaped profile. The ebony fretboard is inlayed with 3mm abalone dots and the ebony headstock is inlayed with an abalone G. The Jim Hurst Signature is fitted with nickel Schaller tuners. A label with Jim Hurst’s signature is inside the sound hole.
This guitar is ready to work hard if you are! Strum it, pick it, sing with it. Nothing terribly fancy here, just great tonewoods and craftmanship. What you put into it you will get out of it in authentic blues, folk, and bluegrass sounds.
