This Les Paul shaped guitar was initially designed to have a fully pine body – using wood form my childrens’ old bunk beds. I later decided to add the red zebra ‘carved-through’ top with olive wood racing stripes. The back includes beech rails – recycled table legs from a Gloucester Rugby Club bar. The neck has a wenge central spine with quilted sapele sides and an olive wood fretboard.
The guitar is finished with a mix of equal parts boiled linseed oil and satin polyurethane varnish thinned with white spirit for application.
The guitar has a 25″ scale length and is fitted with Epiphone P90 Pro pickups – highly recommended in my opinion.
The finished weight is 7lb 14oz.
