This guitar was built to find tones closer to what is heard on the Strats that Jimi Hendrix and Dick Dale played. The excellent Planet Tone, 63-65 Classic pickups were used as a starting point and have a custom stagger on the pole pieces. This produced a very clear tone with slightly brighter lower and warmer higher strings. The clean tones are delightful, but doesn't mind getting dirty, either.
A Mojotone treble bleed circuit is included. Because some distortion/fuzz effects don't play nice with a treble bleed, the circuit is on/off switchable via a push/pull volume pot.
The neck plays very nicely and has a TUSQ Nut.
While very lightly used for setup purposed and testing, there is a light blemish on the body (pictured).
Does not include case, strap or stand.
