Originally created more than 40 years ago in California by Musicraft, the Messenger was a unique guitar best known for its use by Mark Farner of Grand Funk Railroad.

Our tribute to the Messenger captures all the vintage aesthetic vibes of the originals but with a simplified, more traditional design.
