Sold: The Funky One

The Funky One is James Burton meeting James Brown on top of a mountain and exchanging little bits of paper to see what happens. It is what Bootsy would play if he learned how to deal with a couple more strings. It is pure lysergic funk mixed with something a lot older, dirtier and hot, hot and a bit more hotter.

But it has a secret under the hood. The pickups are scorching. I mean burning. I mean sheesh.

At the bridge is an IronGear ‘Hot Slag’ which is awesome sounding.

At the neck is a DiMarzio 'Evolution', which is frankly crazy.

But it isn’t all hot and heavy, The Funky One has knobs as well as balls, and the more you take the time to twiddle them, the more you’ll get out of this little cherub.

To be clear, The Funky One is an utterly unique guitar, and there will never, ever, be another made. It is signed and numbered, entirely hand built and finished cooler than a British funkster. There will genuinely never be another guitar like this and past experience suggests that it won’t be around for long.
