Based on the following KJV Bible scriptures:
Isaiah 41:19 I will plant in the wilderness the cedar, the shittah tree, and the myrtle, and the oil tree; I will set in the desert the fir tree, and the pine, and the box tree together: Isaiah 41:20 That they may see, and know, and consider, and understand together, that the hand of the LORD hath done this, and the Holy One of Israel hath created it.
If God planted these trees and meant for them to be together then who am I to question His reasoning? All I can say is that this Isaiah turned out to be a phenomenal guitar and it won the blind listening contest at a McJam.

This is the 1st guitar in our Genesis series. The word Genesis means beginning and this guitar takes us back and reminds us of our beginnings, building much simpler and utilitarian guitars. Our early guitars had a focus on tone, playability and responsive power. This is our way of offering our customers a no frills guitar with these targeted goals in mind. We are not taking orders for these and the Genesis guitars will only be offered when we build them on spec.
