Pickups
These Mojotone ’58 Quiet Coil pickups produce a super authentic and crystal clear tone. Exaclty what you would expect from such a classic set but without the typicall single-coil-noise.
This guitar covers all kind of sounds from glassy detailed voices to massive high-gain tones with a low noise floor.
Electronics
A lever-switch lets you choose from five classical pickup combinations: neck solo, neck & middle, middle solo, bridge & middle and bridge solo.
A volume control and a global tone control is all you need to dial in the sound you want from this guitar. High quality parts such as Wudtone Wuddyʼs Paper in Oil caps are used in the electronics compartment.
Wood & Hardware
This guitar celebrates the unique wood species used for this build. The body is made of temperature treated noble chestnut. It has similar characteristics to swamp ash regarding grain and weight but it is locally harvested in Europe.
The neck is made of a beautifully grained piece of walnut. The open grained structure feels beautiful in the player’s hand.
Both body and neck are treated with Odie’s Oil. On the one hand it is the perfect finish to expose the beautiful figure of the wood. On the other hand it is a coating which let’s the instrument resonate freely.
To further support sustain, this guitar features a Grainger hardtail bridge in conjunction with a Grainger string ferrule block.
