Based on Fender’s finest, a swamp ash body has been stained and waxed, back and sides, before being abused, scratched, scraped and generally bothered beyond a decent point.
The neck is a good old school handful with a low buzz-free action and a beautiful smooth finish.
The classic Jazzmaster tremolo and Mustang Bridge solve the old traditional problems.
Sounds come via specially wound Jazzmaster pickups, made by Marc Ransley at Mojo Pickups, they along with the top notch Mojo Jazzmaster loom drags every possible tone out of the guitar with ease.
All in all, this is a stunning looking guitar, with bags of tone and a beautiful feel. What else could you possibly want?
*
To be clear, The Floored Genius 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.

Hi,
This guitar looks awesome!! I have a swap ash body that id like to finish exactly like this bad boy!
Did you sand before finishing? was it waster based stain? and finally was it just normal furniture wax on the body?
Thanks a lot
Hiay
Yeah, go for it...I loved the look of that one.
it was an oil based stain. The body was sanded to 1200 grit, and then the stain put on using 0000 grade wire wool. This was sanded back and a second layer of stain put on.
After a light sand, the wax is again put on with wire wool. It is actually Cherry's hard Wax Oil which goes on wet. A few coats of that and I finish off with Beeswax which gives a nice sheen when you buff it for a while. You can do without the beeswax though, if you don't give the HWO a final sand it will stay quite glossy which works nicely too :)
Thanks for getting back to me!
I'm going to try this because it just looks sooooo cool! I just need to find a place for the 1200 and I'm away!
I just love the grain on your guitar, just awesome!
Anyway, I came across Jooky by accident but now I'll be checking in regular... thanks for the info and keep the awesome work coming!
Thanks
Leon
