Glacier has waves of beautiful black walnut and ripples of colorful flame maple.
Built for the Tele enthusiast, this guitar is fitted with Telecaster style bridge, pickups, and control plate. The rest of the guitar is far from your Tele, though.
It has a double cut design, set neck construction, and a 3×3 tuner layout. The neck is chunky at almost an inch thick and has gold EVO jumbo frets.
Glacier is finished with water based lacquer for a crystal clear and durable finish.
I built this as part of a two month build challenge, but have since worked on some upgrades. When (re)finished, I plan to make this guitar available for sale.
