Construction Details: Semi hollow body, full spruce top hand carved and tap tuned like a violin, 24 fret with highly polished fat Jescar nickel wire, Mojotone humbuckers custom wound by Nick Eldred (Alnico 2 neck and Alnico 5 bridge, stagger 50mm/53mm spacing), humbuckers mounted in special flush trim rings, Snake Oil Nickel Rock strings, 1 3/4″ Buffalo bone nut, Hipshot locking tuners and Hipshot Baby Grand bridge, 1 Volume, 1 Tone, 3 way switch, Volume and Tone are push pull for series and parallel humbucker circuits, Orange Sprague tone capacitor, Ebony wood control knobs.

Notes: Special vacuum veneering technique allows us to carve a spruce top and create a one-of-a-kind burl top finish. Asymmetrical neck carve provides super fast neck. This guitar has great punch and versatile sound due to its wiring arrangement, yet maintains simplicity of controls. Very light weight, almost disappearing while hanging from your shoulder.
