“Pinky”

Inspired by Bob Weir’s Iconic Guitar

In 1987, Bob Weir had a custom pink guitar built as a gift for Bob Dylan at the start of the Dylan & the Dead tour. After the tour, the guitar—nicknamed “Pinky”—returned to Weir and has since become a legendary piece of gear.

The original Pinky has been on the Hoeg bench several times, giving Rich rare, hands-on insight into its construction, feel, and sound. After years of musicians asking if he’d build them one, Rich began offering handcrafted replicas of this iconic guitar—built to be played, not just admired.
