The Tokai LP JR DC | Leadbetter Rabid Dog Relic

#DC1 Light Rusty Relic

The Story:

We took some Tokai (MIC) Love Rock Traditional Series LP JR Guitars. Stripped them if their thick poly finish, tastefully relic’d the body and neck of each one to give them the look and feel of a much older worn in players guitars. A new thin skin matte finish was applied. Here’s where it gets really cool. All factory electronics where removed and we’ve installed an all American Dimarzio signal path. We have chosen the Dimarzio Vintage dog eared Soapbar P-90. An incredible pickup with the perfect bark and bite and a huge dynamic range that allows it to clean up nicely. Dimarzio 500k Pots get the most out of the P-90, allowing for clarity and sheen for days. 

Each of These guitars have been beautifully set up by Joel in our Workshop. The rosewood fretboards have been pre-aged, frets polished and fretboard shoulders rolled to give a smooth and played in feel.
