Before The Storm: The Porn Shop One

Well, I'll no doubt start torturing The Porn Shop One over the next few days, but I figured for once it would be nice to show you how it looks before I start criminally damaging such a beautiful looking thing.

For the record - this is a Red Cedar Telemaster-esque body made with love by Simon at Fusion Guitars (top chap).

Stuck into that is a lovely maple Tele neck for added twang.

Under the ash tray cover thing is a Bare Knuckle Boss pickup, which will share noise duties with (probably) an aged '70s Gibson mini-humbucker beneath the scratchplate.

Other than that it is standard Tele controls, though with Gretsch knobs for some reason and there we are.

It looks so clean, so lovely...I almost feel bad even contemplating the corruption to come.

Yours seedily...
