I have been admiring these for quite a while now. Very cool. Trussart has a full page ad in GP every month.

I played a Trussart Tele at Ed Roman's shop in Las Vegas. It was an incredible guitar & piece of art.
Believe me, there was nothing cheap or tacky about this axe. It was beautiful in a unique way....... Too bad it cost as much as a new pedal steel, or I would have snatched it up. |

Surprisingly, Trussart's guitars sound like LPs, Teles and Stats just like their wooden body counterparts.
His guitars seem to have been provided with more "detail" over the past several years and their pricing has significantly increased as well. |
