There is a point where guitars as splendid instruments transcend into the realm of guitars as functioning art. Many Knaggs aficionados are enthralled by the persona of Joe Knaggs the artist as well as Joe Knaggs the luthier.
Examples of Creation Series instruments:
- The Mating Dance
- Alexandra
- Mayflower
- The Black Pearl

To serve numerous customers who ask for “something unique and totally different” we present The Creation Series Guitars. As a true artist in every sense of the word, Joe is “commissioned” to produce a guitar which serves as a testament to the customer’s life, thematic interest or imagination. In this sense the customer suggests a theme or “affect” as well as the guitar’s model configuration but the final
work comes from the mind and soul of Joe Knaggs the artist, that is, his interpretation of the commissioned theme.
These special pieces exist as “one of a kind” never duplicated instruments. As such, they are priced to the dealer as a specific range rather than a fixed price. The customer can specify the concept theme i.e. ”Egyptology” as well as model , neck
wood, etc but the finished product is seen for the first time upon delivery. Creation Series orders should be discussed preliminarily with an authorized Knaggs representative and ultimately with Joe Knaggs himself.
