For sale is my custom Carillion Nemesis, which I received in June 2016.
This is a masterpiece, an epitome of British luthiery. It is flawless in everyway. It is a joy to play and watch, one could describe it as the mating dance of swans, beautiful and majestic.
The real question is though, does it sound nice? Yes, yes it does. The tone is otherworldly. Tones as crushing as the breaking icebergs and cleans as clear as the best Swarovski crystals. You can cover anything with this guitar. The sustain is huge, Parisienne Walkways level sustain without pedals. The guitar has a pair of Bare Knuckle Painkillers in robust brushed nickel covers. Controlwise you get the usual Volume and Tone knobs, what makes this guitar more versatile is the 6way Freeway switch. It has the usual positions as you'd get on a normal 3-way but with 3 extra options for increased versatility. Everything is as good as it gets.
The guitar was built with the best woods available. The woods have been dried by the luthier himself to ensure maximum quality. The body is made of two pieces of swamp ash, which are extremely symmetrical. The neck is made out of 9pieces of Indian rosewood and Ebony topped with a Mastergrade birdseye maple fretboard. The guitar has a maple top with a magnificent figure to it. Ranging from quilt to flame, the top has incredible depth to it. The neck and headstock are bound in Rosewood and Ebony. The headstock has a spliced veneer which combines the fretboard and top woods beautifully into one. The cherry to the pie is the inlay that was hand-made out of ebony, the Empress is what truly completes this build.
The guitar is in mint condition and doesnt have any dings or scratches. It has barely been played due to my injurie and it has been mostly sitting in its custom made flightcase. I will include everything I got with the guitar in the sale, COA, t-shirt, etc.
