Charlie Chandler Custom Made Luthier T-Type 2002 - Trans Amber / Dark Back

A very rare and unusual build form the fantastic Charlier Chandler. If you've not heard his name before, he's basically the go to guy for household names like Pete Townshend, Mark Knoplfer, Rory Gallagher, Jeff Beck and many more.

This was built by him back in 2002 and comprises a T-Style body and neck with modern refinements, such as a 12" Radius fretboard for better playability, and humbucking pickups - both have been wired up to offer split coil operation via a push/pull pot. The neck has a nicely rounded 50's profile that sits comfortably in the hand and works to compliment the 44mm nut width well. The tuners are aged vintage Kluson Deluxe, however the bridge is a modern 6-saddle set up for better intonation.

In the bridge position you see a Kinman Van-48b Stacked humbucker while the neck position sports a Lindy Frailin PAF repro. These pickups can be accessed through the 3-way switch and have a simplistic Vol, Tone control panel.

The finish appears to be nitrocellulose and has been aged nicely with light lacquer checking and a "VOS" style finish.

Condition: Excellent with only light signs of use and will be supplied with a suitable gig bag/case where possible.
