Sadly due to Tom's passing there will be no more new Millennium's. However I can often locate excellent pre-owned Millenniums, if you are looking for a good Millennium please contact me so I can assist you...

So many notable artists play a Millennium that an easy write-up for this guitar would be for me to just list them all here and stop at that. The list really does speak for itself. This guitar, like all of Tom's instruments, is another 'vessel' through which the musicality that Tom imparts to his guitars will be easily accessed by the new owner. The kind of guitar that allows the sound you are hoping for in your mind to blend so perfectly with the tone that leaves the guitar, that the two intertwine with no separation between them. Music as you would have it sound from a guitar. Tom selected some exquisite aged German Spruce for the top, the very kind that Hauser I treasured so much, the kind filled with the beautiful brown winter growth grain that signals to many a superb spruce soundboard. And superb it is. Lush and rich while clear and precise all at once. The back and sides are of rich dark chocolate brown Brazilian, well aged and the kind of Brazilian that you often see years later with not a single crack because it is so stable. Very responsive, and all the above enhanced by the incredible Millennium playability. This is the kind of guitar that will breathe new life into your playing no matter what your current level is.
