While there are a lot of classic features here, there are a few differences which we feel make worthy additions to the guitar. These differences include a slightly revised headstock with a lower degree angle, a double action truss rod and a headstock volute which adds strength where it really needs it.

One of the guitars pictured in the gallery below has been personalised with an Ebony twelfth fret inlay of the new owners initials and his lucky number on the headstock inlaid with Maple. In fact there is a theme of black Maple and chrome which runs right through the guitar including Maple cavity lids and truss rod cover.

The second guitar pictured (above) is similarly speced, except with a British Racing Green high gloss finish and colour matched control knobs.

We have mostly stuck with classic woods for these two, both having a Mahogany body with a beautiful AAA grade flamed Maple top and set Mahogany neck. The black guitar features a high grade Birdseye Maple fingerboard, whereas the Green guitar features a AAA grade jet black Ebony fingerboard
