Setup and Design
This guitar is my first Telecaster-style model built with my favorite pickup configuration-P90s, in this case, custom-made by Michal Tůma. The specific combination of hardware and design elements has become my hallmark, making my guitars easily recognizable and memorable to players and enthusiasts alike.
Materials and Construction
The body is made of okoume, which I acquired from a gentleman in Ledce; it was originally intended for boat building. The neck and fretboard are crafted from quartersawn maple. The body features a gold metallic nitrocellulose lacquer finish, giving the instrument a bold, modern look. The hardware includes Gotoh tuners and a bridge, with a string-through body design for maximum resonance.
A Story of Friendship
Built in March 2020 at the Špejchar workshop in Dobruška, this guitar was symbolically purchased by my longtime friend Petr Cvrkal. Before this, I had spent years providing him with both minor and major guitar maintenance and repairs. Petr wanted to support my journey, and I am thrilled that this piece remains with someone who truly appreciates it and takes such great care of it.
