#052 Tremolo (Sold)
What are three things on the Surf Green Cruzcaster that I have never done before.
#1——It’s Green
#2——Colour matched headstock
#3——Tremolo on a Tele
Mac wanted the surf vibe for his Custom guitar so we started at the beginning which for him was the need for a tremolo. I have built Strats and even though their tremolos work well, you have to cut out so much of the body to make room for it. I love the simplicity of Jaguar/Jazzmaster tremolo system, plus it looks pretty sweet. I suggested a coloured headstock and he loved the idea. We decided on a smaller rustic copper pickguard which left more of the beautiful weathered green wood to catch the eye. A couple of amber Stratocaster knobs with two shell casings round out the look. He went with a P90 in the neck and again my favourite SD Hot Lead in the bridge.
Have fun Mac
