Flame Maple and Walnut with Chrome
Specifications
Body construction: Walnut body with Curly maple top. Both wood species are highly figured. Finished with dye and polymerizing oil, burnished to a high sheen. The oil is a product supplied by Crimson Guitars in the U.K. specially blended for a beautiful hand polished finish.
The finish is hand rubbed and polished with successive grits from 1500 up to 12,000 grit with a wet oil technique. Final polishing is done by hand with different woven cloth types to provide a mirror-like ultra smooth natural feel, after the finish has hardened for several days.
Control cavity is lined with copper foil to reduce radio frequency interference and associated hum. All routed cavities are lacquer coated.
Pickups: Sheptone “6T8” 68 T-Top ES-335 humbuckers designed for hollow or semi-hollow body guitars. Wound with #42 poly wire, and a long Alnico 5 magnet, providing a clear but slightly more gritty tone. Bridge DC resistance is 7.8K. Neck DC resistance is 7.4K.

Pots and caps: CTS 500K solid brass shaft audio taper volume and tone. A .047 microfarad orange drop cap works in conjunction with a .001 microfarad orange drop cap with a 150K Ohm metal film resistor wired in parallel. Provides uniform tone as the volume is rolled down.
Control cover plate: Fender(R) brand, chrome.

The completed guitar plays incredibly well. Five distinct tones in a clean amplified sound setup. Action is low. This is a clean guitar that sounds amazing.
