Serial CA6B012 - Finished in May, 2006. Custom Double Cut Mag / Piezo guitar. Commissioned by Frank Baker. Frank does a lot of recording and wanted an instrument with a wide range of tone, voicing, and pick attack. This combination does that very well. I liked this guitar so much, I ended up making one very similar to it for myself.

HEAR IT - Recorded through Tech21 TRI-A.C. directly into a Pod XT. Riffs and recordings courtesy Frank Baker:

ELECTRONICS: Loaded with both magnetic and piezo pickups with a 3-way mini selector that isolates or mixes output in stereo or mono.

  • MAGNETICS: Seymour's Pearly Gates humbuckers at the neck and bridge routed through a unique balance / blend pot, master volume and tone controls. The volume and tone pots are push / pulls that split a dedicated pickup when pulled for mixed, full single or double coil sound. A 2-way mini toggle reverses phasing of the neck pickup.
  • PIEZO: L. R. Baggs TuneOMatic style bridge routed through a Baggs Control X preamp. Includes a stereo / mono output switch. The Control X unit allows blending of the piezo / magnetic pickups and utilizes one master volume control for all output. Since each string saddle has its own piezo pickup and lead, this guitar can be modified to full hexaphonic output, meaning a dedicated channel for each string from the piezo bridge.
