RECOVERED FILM ARCHIVE

DeTemple
in motion.

Performance, construction and player stories preserved from the legacy DeTemple website and restored for a new home.

FROM THE WORKBENCH

Mike DeTemple & StellaCasta

This recovered film moves from Mike on camera into close-up details of pickups, body routing, fretwork and the instrument itself — a rare look at the thinking and construction behind StellaCasta.

Presented here as a restored legacy film. Product details shown in archival material may not represent current specifications or availability.

PLAYER ARCHIVE

Dean Parks

A recovered player demonstration featuring Dean Parks with a DeTemple instrument. The extended source preserves the sound, feel and direct player-to-instrument relationship that photographs alone cannot show.

PERFORMANCE COLLAGE

Hear DeTemple

An archival DeTemple performance piece built from multiple isolated playing windows — guitars, basses, hands and phrases layered into one visual composition.

PRESERVATION NOTE

The archive is larger than what is shown here.

The recovered source collection also includes duplicate legacy encodes and a longer amplifier-focused film. We are preserving those masters while this public-facing archive is curated around the strongest DeTemple instrument and player material.
