With under an hour of playtime and virtually no signs of use, this guitar presents in immaculate condition and represents one of the finest builds from master Sydney luthier Frank Grubisa.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"631\" data-end=\"1104\" class=\"\"\u003eThe Merlin is a flagship model in the Grubisa lineup — elegant, resonant, and built to perform. This particular guitar is fitted with Dave Leslie–style wiring (inspired by the Baby Animals guitarist’s own setup), offering enhanced tonal flexibility, smooth response, and intuitive control. The result is a highly dynamic instrument capable of everything from warm, articulate cleans to thick, harmonically rich gain tones, with excellent balance and clarity throughout.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1106\" data-end=\"1541\" class=\"\"\u003eConstruction is world-class: a carved quilted maple top sits over a solid mahogany body, matched with a set mahogany neck and rosewood fingerboard with pearl triangle inlays. Hardware includes Sperzel locking tuners, a 6-saddle hardtail bridge, and premium-grade pots and switches. The neck is smooth and fast, with low action and exceptional playability up the board — a true performance tool that feels effortless in hand.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1543\" data-end=\"1773\" class=\"\"\u003eSonically, the Merlin is bold, responsive, and refined. Notes bloom quickly and sustain naturally, while the pickups deliver articulate punch and great dynamic range. Whether on stage or in the studio, it’s a guitar that inspires.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1775\" data-end=\"1956\" class=\"\"\u003eA case is not included but can be organised upon request.
