Another in our range of V variations ( we seem to have more than Rudolph Schenker
)Here we have a 2 piece mahogany body , mated to a 3 piece quarter-sawn mahogany with a rosewood fingerboard
24.75" scale with Dunlop 6000 fretwire
Hardware:
Sperzel locking tuners
Earvana Nut
Tonepros tunamatic
Lightweight aluminium tailpiece locked in with Tonepros studs (the ones that clamp the tailpiece down)
Pickups:
Bare Knuckle Pickups Cold Sweat (one of my fave *for V and Explorer guitars)
Controls are BKP 550k pots and a BKP/Jensen capacitor
Finish:
This was something we worked hard to get the way I wanted it to look
I was going for that look you get from a UV/blacklight tube where you have a violet colour but with a surrounding haze of almost blue.
We used a metallic purple base over which we put a blue flip flop *tint
The effect changes as you move the guitar - subtle but effective
