Abernethy Sonic Empress THC #166
This is a super fun guitar littered with tones.
Crusty distressed Candy Apple Red nitro lacquer finish over lightweight offset Tempered Pine body, Vintage Kawai pickups rewound by pickup master Rob Banta of Gemini pickup lore. Lightweight. Balanced.
Pickups are wired in series so when two are engaged you get a full humbucking combo.
Independent slider switches turn pickups on/ off offering a myriad of combinations.
The bottom two switches borrow from the Mustang and Jaguar circuits.
A “stangle” switch which cuts some of the lows and a phase switch that will give you that ducky quacky tone when the neck or bridge pup are in combination with the middle pup.
