HELLBENT “Fimbulvetr”
After ragnarok, there was the great winter. Three years of ice that would end all life on earth. This instrument was inspired by such lore.
This build was a measurement of absolute tenacity. This instrument features by far the most intricate and detailed inlay work we’ve done to date, and a first of its kind Crystal Shatter paint scheme that was developed and fine-tuned by luthier and painter Nick Adams to accommodate the specific requirements of applyication to a guitar. It’s safe to say that this build pushed the boundaries of the custom guitar world and challenged our own skill and that is ultimately what UD is all about.
Stay HELL BENT.
