Sold: The Liberian One

The Liberian One is a rather stunning Swamp Ash bodied Jazzmaster, with plenty of twists and twirls to make it ooh sooo darn puurrttyy.

For a start, it has a wonderfully aged oil and wax finish based on an old table of my Gran’s – time staining in the truest sense. It has a one piece swamp ash body which is truly lovely and grained.

From there a beautiful bound and blocked maple/rosewood neck has been nailed on in a big way.

Fender Jazzmaster tremolo and bridge are cool as ever, and a set of Sperzel Trim-Lok locking tuners mean life will always be predictably un-atonal.

As for the noise, we have gone for a set of the quite beautiful Teisco style Mojo Pickups Gold Foils. If you haven’t played these before you are in for a real treat as they are Lush McLush from under the Lush Tree.
Joining the dots we also have one of Mojo’s top notch wiring looms – CTS pots, Switchcraft this, PIO that, which will last for aeons.

*

To be clear, The Liberian 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 slo-mo run across the pebbled beach at Portishead. There will genuinely never be another guitar like this and past experience suggests that it won’t be around for long.
