$615.00 NZD SOLD
Flutney Partscaster with B Bender installed. A beater axe, a relic with the famous “Flutney” named cargo-stamped on the front. The Nashville setup has 3 pickups and a 5-position switch. Maple neck with rosewood fingerboard, vintage style tuners, black 3-ply pickguard. Built from parts, both old and new, and put together to create a great workhorse guitar for both stage and recording studio.
Features:
— stock Alnico 3 bridge pickup
— Strat middle pickup
— hot P-90 neck pickup with grille
— 5-position switch allows various pickup combinations and a wide range of tone
The B-Bender mechanism is smooth and easy to tune when restringing. A solid guitar, but certainly not a showroom finish. The beat up body is from an older guitar, relic treatment and tagged with the Flutney name. Maple neck fretboard is a bit flatter than the older Teles. Vintage style tuners (new) work well. It’s a good looking, solid guitar and plays like an old Tele.
Guitar is light weight, approx 6 lbs (3 kg), but still has big, fat tone. You can play it all night without destroying your neck and shoulders. Again, no hard-sell here… you’ll either like this or you won’t. If you know about B-benders, you already know how cool this is. If you don’t know about B-benders, check ’em out. I’m selling these prototypes in NZ only. I don’t make very many, so you won’t see many of them around.
B Benders aren’t for everyone, but if you’re a guitar player who wants to head away from the crowd, you might want to check them out.
