"FRANKIE"
The white one is one of the earliest guitars that I put together for myself back in 1988.
It features a heavy Brazilian mahogany body and an ESP neck which is scalloped from the 13th-22nd frets.
It was always known as Frankie because it was a "Frankenstein" of a few bits and pieces. It has a HUGE sound like a Les Paul on steroids- truly awesome. It has a neck plate from the Shadow Guitar factory where I worked with the serial number 000666 which amused me at the time as being very "rock and roll" .
I am planning on making a replacement neck as I now find this one a touch narrow
BLONDE PANTHER
The Blonde guitar is a sister guitar to Frankie and features a one piece swamp ash body, an all access neck and the neck is scalloped once again from frets 13-22.
It is much lighter and has a very different vibe.
We were putting our trademark cats-eye inlay markers in the fretboards too. Still one of my favourite guitars that I have ever built or played |
