Cheeky bastard in't he Joe, I bet the quiet man sounds f***ing mint on that...

Oh yes, I'm an impittant bastard, and no mistake.

A very classic looking offering we made for Joe .We wanted to capture a lightly faded 59 LP vibe, but with all the creature comforts and refinements that we like to add:

Three piece quartersawn neck, volute , Dunlop 6100 frets, Earvana Compensated tuning nut, Sperzel tuners, TonePros tunamatic bridge and tailpiece studs, and a lightweight aluminium tailpiece.

Turned out very nicely too!

The pickups are a pair of Bare Knuckle Pickups Mules wired via a harness with CTS/BKP 550k pots and a pair of Jensen paper in Oil caps - although the neck tone is a CTS500k push pull that coil splits the neck pickup for singel coil sounds.

That looks quite a bonny one Joe lad! Look after it and divin't break the buggers neck!
