Indian Corn Electric Guitar
This guitar was commissioned in the spirit of
Eric Clapton's "The Fool" psychedelic
guitar, which he played back in his Cream days. I
didn't want to literally copy that motif and my
client encouraged me to create my own
interpretation. So what we have here is more of a
Native American psychedelia as opposed to that
London scene from the 60s. I like to think of
this as Americana camouflage useful for keeping a
low profile in farm country. This guitar is
constructed the same as my Silvertone-style
guitars.
Masonite and pine body finished in
Indian corn motif with nitrocellulose lacquer
Heavy-duty vinyl wallpaper edging on
body
White masonite pickguard
Maple neck with rosewood fretboard
