EA Purple Sparkle Overview

Overview:

This Rock -N- Roll Machine is built with a subtle over the top look. With three colors of bass boat sparkle, smaller sparkles & even some Metallic in the deep purple translucent color coat.  This guitar is hard to describe & even harder to capture in a photograph. With such a dynamic finish, it truly looks different in every light & from every angle.  Top of the line wood selection, craftsmanship, hardware & electronics keep this instrument singing effortlessly while you stay in the music, worry free from distraction & struggle.  This is a medium weight for this model. This 7 lb 13.4 oz (or) 7.84 lb specimen is ready for the professional artist to bring in the studio. The neck had ZERO deflection or (relief) before stringing, & .0012" deflection or (relief) after a set of String Joy .0095" to .046" went on. The relief was forced into the neck at .004" for 14 days, then set at .0035" & steady. It's difficult to find a more stable neck design anywhere. This guitar handles open tunings with ease. There's no rechecking each string several times for pitch. You'll keep up through the change up. This guitar has a medium frequency response & is perfect for rhythm & lead.

Unmatched Voice:

This purple bass boat / disco ball of a guitar is proudly powered by Fralin P90 original, stock wound, polished nickel covered pickups. Perfectly matched providing that clear, powerful, yet touch sensitive true tone of the guitar. The articulate nature of these pickups let you hear the individual notes & nuances of a crowded space.   ​ Packed in a fully copper shielded body are smooth tapered, sealed Dunlop Pots with a three way Switchcraft switch, braided wire & a double treble bleed on both volumes. This keeps the noise of the venue out of your speakers & the music in their face. With an Emerson paper oil tone cap, the singer can stand out front where they should be, when they should be.

Playability:
Tuning stability, intonation & a stiff neck is what the doctor ordered.

A polished bone nut, Graphtech Ratio Locking Tuners & a Gotoh Wrap Around bridge keep the strings in place.

A stiff neck takes the energy you give during the performance. 

Keep your mind in the music, not on the gear.

Comfortable Hands:
Your hands have enough to do...
Smooth, polished jumbo frets keep the vibrato & legato at your finger tips. While the smooth feel of the bridge gives you that firm rest for the palm, it also gives you that out of the way feel when you've got to... go for it.
Hemispherical fret ends slide right by the fast changes, and the stainless steel keeps it that way.

What's behind the scene isn't always for  the crowd...
This coin is a personal gift from me to you.
It represents my old fashion ways & sense of pride. In the days of this coin, Craftsmen were Craftsmen & this 1928 nickel was representative of their true efforts. I'm proudly passing my efforts to you. I know you will use them as a tool to inspire others in your unique way.
