THE CHUGGER IS BACK! Shane Speal re-introduces his 2-string Chugger design in a new electric model. This new chugger features an 18" scale, Punch cigar box and a poplar neck with a stenciled Florentine design. Please note: Speal has built these guitars with the box tops screwed shut (no glue). This allows you to further modify the instrument if you'd like.
