QR Code Link to This Post
Specs:
The body was built in Florida by luthier Eric King of Red Hand Custom guitars.
- 1 Piece Honduran Mahogany Body
- 2 Piece AAA-Grade Flame Maple Top
- Nitrocellulose lacquer
- Cream binding
It has some finish imperfections, like some uneven sanding around the neck pocket, and a small knot in the top bout. The body still looks great despite this, and is very lightweight and resonant.
The pickups are a Seymour Duncan SH-55n Seth Lover neck, and a "Godzilla" boutique bridge pickup wound by James Overbay. The bridge pickup uses Formvar wire and Alnico 3 magnets. Bourns pots.
The bridge is a Schroeder Lightweight Aluminum Telecaster Bridge ($145), with compensated brass saddles. It is a lefty bridge so the guitar has a reversed bridge pickup.
The neck is from Warmoth.
