Bloom Guitars is the creation of Master Luthier Gabriel Wright, owner of Gabriel's Guitars in Tucson, AZ and Spokane, WA. Each instrument is hand-crafted with extreme attention to detail to provide the absolute best quality instrument available to you. With over 20 years of building and repair experience working on boutique as well as average instruments, Gabriel is uniquely knowledgeable about common issues that instruments endure and encounter. Bloom seeks to tackle those issues head-on with carefully selected woods, premium electronics, and only top-tier materials.  The Lilac Bloom Relic Tele is all the mojo, vintage tone, and playability with none of the hassle of upkeeping and maintaining a vintage instrument. Outfitted with Custom Broadcaster-style pickups from the Sonoran Custom Hand Wound Pickups company in Tucson, AZ, the instrument sounds just like a 1950's-era Telecaster. The more modern 10" Fretboard radius better accommodates bends, however, and gives the guitar a unique playability that is unmatched!
