Description
Third in the hand, built by said hand right here in Melbourne. Handsomely. I'd love to tell you exactly what this offset is based on, but certain companies have a habit of expressing their appreciation through legal correspondence. Let's just say that if you're looking for that style of guitar, this may well be the best example I've had the pleasure of playing. It's incredibly resonant before you even plug it in, and once you do, you get the perfect balance of sparkle, punch and grunt. Everything you'd want from a great offset, with none of the compromises.
The swamp ash body wears a beautifully executed lightly reliced white-over-sunburst nitro finish that looks every bit like a million bucks. The rock maple neck features a super comfortable C profile and a dark Indian rosewood fingerboard with a vintage-correct 7.25" radius. Premium hardware and electronics are fitted throughout, including Lollar '58 JM pickups, a Mastery bridge and vibrato, an Avantguard '62 tortoise guard, and a host of other carefully chosen appointments.
We're lucky enough to have three of these guitars in the shop right now, but I can't imagine they'll be here for long. The quality, attention to detail and feel of a hand-built instrument like this simply can't be matched by mass production. Come in and play it or save yourself the trip and grab it before someone else does. It's genuinely that good. 3.65kg. Made right here. Comes with a SKB HC. Serial 005
