Elliott Limited Edition Tone Master DESCRIPTION:http://www.destroyallguitars.com/newarrivals-guitars/6296-elliott-limited-edition-tone-master 
A one-of-a-kind custom color Elliott Tone Master with absolutely glorious tone that shines just like its head spinning cardinal red finish. Along with its custom painted pickguard and Super Vee Tremolo system, this Tone Master is a truly unique creation from the masterful hands of Andy Elliott. This is one of the most expressive and beautiful sounding guitars we’ve been fortunate enough to play. WOOD SELECTION The wood is selected first and has to meet certain size and grain characteristics to assure all bodies are glued in the same manner; with an offset glue joint at the bottom bout of the guitar. This maintains consistency from one guitar to the next. The upper bout is contoured for a very comfortable feel. The species of wood used for this guitar is alder. NECK The neck is a lap sawn, maple neck with an Indian rosewood fingerboard; traditional clay marking dots, and custom side dots. The neck has a nitro finish. FRETTING The fretting process is done through epoxy fretting. This process is used for multiple reasons. One of the advantages to this type of fretting is that you lose the hollow gaps under the fret that you find with the traditional way of fretting. In traditional fretting, with each fret you put on, it is like driving a wedge into the fingerboard, which causes back tension on the neck. With epoxy fretting, all of these issues are eliminated. The epoxy under the frets helps to transfer string vibration throughout the neck to the body, and relieves all stress and tension on the neck that occurs with traditional fretting. This results in a stress-free neck, which allows the truss rod to work properly and to adjust the neck accurately. PICKUPS The pickups are custom wound to Peter Elliott's specifications. They are very similar to Gibson's P-90s from the mid to late 1950s, with alnico magnets. These pickups are wound on a Jazzmaster bobbin, which creates a really neat sound. The wiring of the pickups is different from that of a Jazzmaster. There are two 500k pots, a Plessey .022 cap. Jazz circuit switch, allowing more tone dimension than a typical Jazzmaster. BRIDGE Super Vee Blade Runner Tremolo! SPECS:
