This listing is for Scott Walker's Solace guitar with matte black top and back and natural sides. This model is inspired by the Silvertone/Danelectro guitars of the 60's with a formica top over a chambered Basswood body. Whereas the original vintage designs featured slightly weak "lipstick" pickups, Scott has designed a new pickup that is perfect for the articulate, full, electric tones that this guitar produces. The Solace features a handful of unique points and details. It's a guitar that plays itself, Woods, metals, pickup and electronics, finishes and construction details have all been meticulously thought through, tested and revised and packed into one amazing instrument.  It features a short scale length, to be used with heavier gauge strings for a full sound and excellent definition. Built for the road and the studio.
