DEF CUSTOMS - UNIQUE BOUTIQUE GUITARS, MADE IN PARIS

---> THE DEFCASTER - STANDARD SPECS* <---

They're incredibly light, super playable, awesome-sounding and have breathtaking looks ! How is it possible ? Here it is, thoroughly explained. I only use Nitro clear, and keep it very light, to preserve wood feel. Nitro paint and water-based stains. Even though each and every part of it is fully customisable to suit your personal needs, here's what you'll find in the "standard" DefCaster: (*specs may vary on some models) And YES I can engrave a guitar to your design.

Neck: maple with rosewood fretboard. 22 Medium frets, Flat-C, 9' Radius.

Nut: Tusq or bone.

Tuners: Kluson or Gotoh, vintage-style or diecast.

Body: Basswood (extra light!!) with ash/tamo ash veneered top

Electronics: Fully copper-shielded cavities, pushback cloth vintage wire, 250k CTS pots, Paper-in-oil old stock capacitors or Orange Drop .47 cap, Treble bleed, Switchcraft/USA jack socket,
Fender/Switchcraft/Oak Grigsby 3-position switch.

Saddles: Wilkinson - brass, compensated.

Control Plate: reverse "Bill Kirchen" mod: Vol/Tone/Switch for easy volume swells (standard config optional)

Pickups: Your choice of handwound high-end pickups, from vintage 50's tone to modern super-high output, and everything in between, custom models to your specs available. I currently favor Quarterpounds with open neck cover and fat poles, but hey that's just me.
