Scott Walker Jimson 2012 Blonde

This is California guitar maker Scott Walker's take on the telecaster.  The Body is resonant hand carved Sugar Pine and features hand wound Lollar Vintage T style pickups by Scott.  After lots of research and development Scott has cracked the code for an exceptionally clear, full and articulate set of pickups.  These feature Alnico 3 magnets, 42 Awg wire, and shellac potting to give just the right amount of liveliness.  The neck pickup wire is coated with Plain enamel coating to help accentuate the higher frequencies and the bridge with a heavy formvar to add a little compression and tightness to the sounds.  The Alnico 3 magnets, being weaker than the Alnico 5, help with sustain and clarity, making a really usable warm but chimy neck position.
