Veteran Country & Rock Guitar Whiz Steuart Smith is one of the most awesome guitar players in the world with 140 album credits to date. Steuart is one of the most sought after guitarist in the industry having recorded and/or toured with the Eagles, Melissa Etheridge, Wynonna Judd, Vince Gill, Trisha Yearwood, Rosanne Cash, Don Henley, Shawn Colvin, Rodney Crowell, Dar Williams and Dolly Parton to name a few. It's no wonder the Eagles chose Steuart Smith to replace Don Felder in 2001. Steuart can not only throw down Rock 'N' Roll chops with the best of them, but further compliments his repertoire with an arsenal of tasty country licks. His guitar talents can only be surpassed by his class as a person.

The Custom Shop Opus X is a triumphant work of functional art by any standards. At first glance one might consider the solid Mother of Pearl fingerboard a rare Museum quality collector's piece, but one would be greatly mistaken as this is a Player's guitar first and foremost. The action of the solid MOP over Ebony fingerboard is perhaps the fastest playing in the world and the tone projecting from the hard MOP surface sounds like it's going through a studio compressor/limiter in its natural acoustical state. The Limited Edition Opus X is currently available in Auditorium, Medium Jumbo and Dreadnought body styles.
