The shape may be based on the Vox Teardrops of old, but we wanted something a little more playable and have gone for a Fender Stratocaster neck, rosewood board over maple. We went for a centre block to cut down on the traditional feedback ‘features’, as let’s face it we all play a little louder these days.
The body is semi-acoustic, and along with the Gibson P90 at the bridge and matching loom – complete with a gorgeous Grey Tiger PIO cap – the tones that can be dredged from one so simple are stunning.
The top is a classic corroded bronze and copper with arty pants painting in acrylic on top and one we’re particularly awed and musted about, and a fabric binding and rear cavity cover give more of a homespun ‘60s vibe.

To be clear, The Frou Frou Fox 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.
