My take on the SG and although instantly recognisable as such, there are a number of changes made to the body shape and features.
The neck has been shifted further into the body to improve balance and reduce reach. The horns and cutaways have been adapted to still give perfect high fret access and we have a long neck tenon. The neck pickup has also been moved to the Les Paul position compared to the SGs further away from the fretboard position.
The guitar features the now discontinued Schaller vintage copper hardware throughout…which was quite a task tracking down! To match the hardware we also have copper block inlays on both the front and side of the fretboard. The guitar also features a handmade ebony and brass tailpiece.

The neck is a 3 piece Mahogany laminate with titanium reinforcement bars and headstock volute, making it very strong and stable.
Perhaps the most exciting feature of the guitar is an onboard MXR Hybrid fuzz allowing massive amounts of fuzz once activated by a push/pull pot. This sounds fantastic with the Bare Knuckle pickups which have been fitted into Schaller vintage copper cases.
