#020 - The Electric Boog-a-Lou

So Lou got home from his tour a day earlier than I expected, so I pulled an all nighter to get this thing ready for him.  Looks and sounds pretty damn good if you ask me.

Here's the specs:

  • Chambered/semi-hollow red oak core body, shape based on Gibson L-00, and Lou's resonator
  • Quartersawn curly red oak top and back
  • 3 piece quartersawn curly red oak neck
  • 25" scale ebony fretboard, 17 frets, 12" radius
  • Lindy Fralin P90 pickups, 10% underwound neck
  • Gotoh Tune-o-matic bridge with custom walnut base
  • 1960's Kingston trapeze tailpiece
  • Vintage radio knobs
  • Stewart Macdonald classical tuning pegs
