T-style Relic Custom Guitar
This Guitar's Story
I don't always like relic'ed guitars, but when the wood and fabric call for it, it can be cool. This is a soft wood Cyprus body, so it's going to get dinged up naturally. So I put a little age and wear on it. The Bootstrap P90 pickups on this sucker sound fantastic. This is also the very first guitar to feature the new King Electric Guitars headstock. This is a T-style body, but since this is not my Taurus design, it gets the label of Prototype. The neck has a medium thick vintage feel to it, but tapers nicely near the neck pocket. Very comfortable to play.
