In September I parted with one of the best damn cars I ever owned. With the budget from selling my old friend I decided to do what Elwood would do if he played guitar instead of harmonica. I had been obsesing over this build for awhile. I was never sure if the woods would look good together. When I opened the box today I knew she was too good for me. I've built a few guitars but to me this is the prettiest damn wood I've ever seen carved into guitar parts. It's a maple chambered body with a wenge top and a wenge neck with a purpleheart fretboard. I've got gold planet wave tuners to match the gold frets and bridge. I'm using a Bootstrap's new P90 Screwdriver pick-ups in the neck and middle position and a n Extra Crispy Tele bridge pickup. I've got a set of Guilford purpleheart P90 covers on order. Wiring will be 7 way and I plan on setting the middle pickup up with a push pull for out of phase. It's fine if she's not your taste. She's mine anyway.
