TMI Custom LPS 2022
TMI Custom LPS 2022
This custom hand made prototype guitar is part of my 25th anniversary and is my homage to the man Les Paul. It has a chambered body traced straight from one of my LP specials and made from high quality solid Queensland pine laminate. The neck is also made from the same laminate with a rosewood 24 fret fretboard with zero fret.
The body contains hand made Tym low output pickups and effects with an active HP/LP filter and a Savage Toecutter running off a single 9V battery located under the small scratchplate under the pickups. See below and/or check my BLOG for full specs.
