The knob is a machined brass billet piece as well. Just one volume, but an elongated control cavity so you can add a tone control if you want.
The tuners original design, with a bronze crown gear and bronze pinion gear and SOLID BRASS knob- the result is a tuner with basically NO backlash. It's smooth and very accurate, you'll stay in tune.

This Axe distinguishes itself with the PICKUPS. HAND AGED Tele pickups. We use the SL119 "Fullerton Lead" in the bridge, and the SLP121 "Fullerton" neck pickup. These are true authentic vintage pickups- ALnico V sand cast rod magnets, Formvar wire, bridge wound to a STOUT 9.4K and the neck to a Leo-Approved 5.6K. The pickups are not just built from the right stuff, but hand aged- both cosmetically and magnetically. They look like old pickups... they feel like old pickups... they sound like old pickups.
The feel and vibe is enhanced and preserved by the completely unique way that the guitar is finished. The solid ash body is NOT wood grain filled. It is NOT sealed. NO Polyurethane fillers. It's raw. sprayed with a single coat of old fashioned automotive paint and sanded back. The pores don't get clogged so the wood can breathe. It works. It sounds better. Louder. Fuller. You can feel it instantly.
The SL50 is a unique guitar, with a tone, feel and sound unmatched by anything under a grand out there. Comes with a Quality Case
