- Doug_Irwin abstract "Doug Irwin is a luthier, best known as the designer of 5 custom guitars for Jerry Garcia of the Grateful Dead. The guitars he built for Garcia included Eagle (Alembic),Wolf,Tiger,Wolf Jr. (headless) and Rosebud.Doug also built a limited amount of other guitars and basses including a bass for Pete Sears and a bass for Phil Lesh. Two other guitars are documented as being built by Irwin: Rosewood and a Les Paul type guitar. These two guitars appear in the one and only D. Irwin Guitar Company sales brochure.After the death of Jerry Garcia in 1995, Jerry's will directed that his Irwin-made guitars be returned to Doug Irwin. After a legal battle with the remaining members of the Grateful Dead, the parties settled and agreed that Doug would receive \"Wolf\" and \"Tiger\" and GD Productions would keep \"Rosebud\" and \"Wolf Jr.\" (Wolf Jr. is sometimes referred to as \"headless\" and was never played by Jerry in concert). Doug immediately sold Tiger and Wolf at auction. Wolf went for $789,500 including the buyers premium, Tiger sold for $957,500 including the buyers premium. It is believed that at the time, Tiger's price was the highest ever paid for a guitar at auction.Eagle, the first guitar that Doug Irwin built under his own name, and the first Irwin guitar purchased by Jerry Garcia (although apparently Jerry never played this guitar in concert), was auctioned via Bonhams on May 8, 2007 for $186,000 inclusive of the buyer's premium.".
