The Knaggs Chesapeake Choptank Tier 2 features Maple setneck design, with a special Alder/Maple/Sapele Body designed and built by famed builder Joe Knaggs. Features three classic single coils with a 25.5” scale, Knaggs’ Chesapeake hard tail bridge designed to drive the sound into the center of the body, improving sustain and response only the player can feel. Standard features are set Rock Maple necks with Rosewood or Maple fretboards and Alder/Sapele laminated bodies with or without Maple tops. Like all Knaggs models, the Choptank is available in two tiers and a variety of color options.

This is the first Knaggs Choptank to be outfitted with a tremolo.

Giant pickguards imply the owner is a neanderthal with a pick. Why by a four thousand dollar flametop guitar if most of the flame is blocked over by a giant piece of black plastic.

Knaggs pickguards are made of wood and some even have inlays in them, but I get what you're saying and agree.

Anybody know what a choptank is? Odd name.

I'm imagining it's where they take fish to remove serial numbers or something.
 
A private reserve Mira got tag-teamed by a Tele and a Strat and nine months later this abomination crawled out.
