QR Code Link to This Post
This is a beautiful guitar and very rare handmade guitar from Vincent at New Orleans Guitar Company. Extremely well made and highly versatile. This is the easiest neck to play with the smoothest fret ends. IMO, the Bare Knuckle Mules are amazing sounding PAF's.

Grover 505c6 mini roto-grip locking rotomatic tuners 6 in-line.
25.5" scale.
12" Radius.

The pickups are Bare Knuckle Mule in the neck wired series/parallel, and the bridge in series...It's somewhat of a modern take on vintage voicing without the mud. I don't think one can find a better pickup for this guitar - they are absolutely amazing.

From New Orleans Guitar Company:
MODEL-8
The Model 8 is our answer to the bolt on semi hollow electric guitar design. Built around the 25.5'' scale, in 22 frets, 12'' radius because there is no other scale that sounds quite like it. The bass end is tight and defined, the high end has sting, and overall it has the percussive edge that lends itself to a more focused rhythm playing, but with all of the bite up top that you could hope for. This guitar feels very at home in a more honky tonk and funk environment, and thanks to it's lightweight construction, long gigs won't feel so long.
Average MSRP: $3795
NO TRADES.
