Pickups are Seymour Duncans, a Pearly Gates neck and StagMag bridge Humbucker, controls are master vol. master tone, 3 way selector toggle and individual mini toggles for coil splitting.
The slim profile neck is Padouk with an ebony fingerboard, frets are mini-jumbo and the nut is graphite.
Gold hardware sets this one of a kind guitar off to perfection!
I build my guitars one at a time. Each one is different so I don't have a "model range" as such. I like to make them more versatile and special than a mass produced guitar. I love trying out different pickup and timber combinations and coming up with a great sounding result. If you would like me to build a guitar for you I would love to hear from you. Price would depend on how exotic you wanted to get but for around $1500-2000au. you would end up with a beautiful hand built custom instrument. I use the best materials I can find, not the cheapest . I prefer to hand finish my guitars rather than spray them. I think they sound better and it's certainly better for the environment. But obviously some colours, like sunbursts and solids, have to be sprayed and I do that too. I just like the look and feel of natural wood. Although I'm a lefty I don't have a problem building and setting up a right handed guitar. My problem comes when I have finished it and all I can do is look at it because I want to play it and can't... It's torture!
