An Infinitum archtop made by Glenn Maxwell is already exceedingly rare, and here is a singular variation featuring headless, fan fret, carbon fiber neck through construction. A sight to behold with rare, attractive woods, and is exquisitely carved.

Specs / Measurements

  • 2024

  • Quilted Redwood / Casuarina (Local to New Zealand, and thermally treated in-house)

  • Casuarina / carbon fiber through neck

  • Casuarina / carbon fiber sides

  • ~1.72” nut

  • ~26” to ~24.5” multiscale

  • ~2.02” string spacing at saddle

  • “Trap door” in back to access tuners / body

  • ABM tuners

  • Oil finish

  • Original fitted Gator case

Condition / Setup Notes

Excellent(+); There is only the lightest wear evident, and it is in beautiful shape especially given the thin delicate finish, and softness of the redwood. The current string height is about 5/64” to 4/64” from bass to treble, with moderate relief. The neck being a hollow carbon fiber core, does not have an adjustable truss rod.

Additional Thoughts

Where to start? First, there’s the fundamental Infinitum archtop design, with a body carve inspired by the infinity symbol, and with the sound holes integrated into the curves of the guitar. This particular one is a singular design among Infinitum guitars, and features a carbon fiber structure in the body that anchors the strings, and also extends out to comprise the structural core of the neck. It could be viewed as a neck through carbon fiber acoustic archtop guitar. With the tuners being inside the body, it is also a headless design. The ABM tuners are accessed through a small door built into the back, and secured by small magnets. Beautifully figured redwood was selected for the top, and a rare wood local to New Zealand, Casuarina, is used for the back, sides, neck, fingerboard, and bridge. An innovative design, and just one of one, never to be repeated.
