Mike is a life-long University of Oklahoma fan, and he knows I'm an Oklahoma State grad. I think he commissioned this guitar just to see if I would do it. Well, the joke's on him. I took the job, so he had to pay me. In all sincerity, I'm flattered that he asked me to build this for him, and even though the colors and logo caused me to have to perform a ritual cleansing in my shop, I'm still very proud of it. And as with all of my guitars, I put everything I had into it.
Here are the specs:
- 25.5" scale
- Alder body
- Hand-carved flame maple neck
- Pao ferro fretboard
- OU logo inlaid on 3rd fret
- Hand-drawn custom pinstriping
- Custom crimson and cream paint scheme
- Corian nut
- Wilkinson bridge and tuners
- CTS pots
- Switchcraft switch and jack
