Sold: The Tripadelic One

The Tripadelic One is a classic Jooky design and pays homage to the ‘90s bigging-up of the Beatles nod to the ‘60s West Coast hippiness of free love and lickable postage stamps.

It has a single pickup, a quite gorgeous Bare Knuckle Stormy Monday humbucker, and an in-built NOS Germanium-based Sophie’s Filthy Boots Fuzz. The body and scratchplate finishes are protected by first coats of poly and then nitro lacquers.

The guitar is of course based on a pimped-up Fender Stratocaster that we all know and free love. Tuners and bridge are both takes on traditional parts and work perfectly, with the locking tuners proving to be rock solid. It should be played very, very loudly.

All in all, it is a unique looking and sounding guitar. Verily groovy indeed.

To be clear, The Tripadelic 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 pleasant night checking your shoes. There will genuinely never be another guitar like this and past experience suggests that it won’t be around for long.

The Tripadelic One comes with a Tweedy Hardcase, and will be delivered to your door for a quite stunning £399.  SORRY IT HAS NOW BEEN SOLD
