One heck of a guitar
McCloud is a small custom shop. I bought this on Reverb. It's basically a Tele, but with TV Jones Filtertron type pickups (think Gretsch) and a Bigsby tremolo. The controls are dirt simple: volume, tone, 3 way switch. There's no coil taps, but filtertrons aren't very hot humbuckers, so splitting the coil would probably make it too cold. It has a great sound, I love the bigsby and the playability with the stainless steel frets is just awesome. This is one of a kind and very special.
