Well I did it again... couldnt help myself... love working with Tom, picking the wood and the coloring, and watching him do his magic!... This one weighs in at 8lbs., 6oz... Neck is spec'd to the exact shape of my former '53/'57 Goldtop.... new top carve taken from a real burst and blue laser copied... and the usual: old growth mahogany, brazilian, eastern maple, all the correct glues in the right places including hide glue, correct material plastics, binding and inlays, Bartlett rings, hard thin nitro naturally checked...
So for this one I wanted big wide flame, very little mineral, flitch matched and rich cherry sunburst only slightly faded.... It has my fave vintage PAFs, 8.1K in the neck and 8.6K in the bridge, vintage tail, centralabs, bees and knobs...
Here's a video playing though my early '80 Fender Deluxe II and another video live through my Blues Jr. with vintage JBL D120... Famous last words but gonna take this one to the grave with me!
