LP Junior with B Bender
PRICE REDUCED: “The Flutney”, a lovely little Les Paul Jr. style guitar that has been modified for use as a multi-purpose axe. This is a true hybrid between the LP Jr. and the Telecaster, with the Gibson bridge setup replaced with a Tele bridge and brass barrels. The powerful P-90 Les Paul Jr. pickup has been moved to the neck position, with a hot Alnico 3 Tele style pickup in the bridge. A new tortoise shell pickguard was made to accomodate the new setup, which features a 3-position toggle switch that looks like a Gibson, but works like a Tele. This is a hot guitar. P/W style B Bender system was built by Chase Weatherford in Muscle Shoals, Alabama (USA) and was carefully fit into this guitar.
It has the classic Gibson style C-neck, thick like a baseball bat. Kluson vintage tuners. Medium weight at 7.6 lbs [3.5 kg]. The small holes in the front are from a Bigsby tremelo bar that was originally on the guitar. This guitar is not for the faint of heart, but you won’t find another B Bender like this one, that’s for sure.
Body is in good condition, with a few minor chips and scratches here and there. It looks like it has been repainted. The small holes in the front (below the bridge) are from a Bigsby tremelo bar that was originally on the guitar. This guitar is for those who don’t want to follow the crowd. You won’t find another B Bender like this one, that’s for sure.
