Sold: Scott Walker Jimson
What's Hot
Built in 2013, beautiful Scott Walker Jimson. It's a stunning instrument but having become accustomed to a Les Paul and its shorter scale length I can't justify keeping it. A very nice range of tones from the four way switch wiring and push-pull out of phase settings. The guitar is in excellent condition with no nasty dings or scratches or significant wear.
Comes in its original Scott Walker custom built case and includes the original sales receipt.

Comments
Yourself and the previous owner have presented this guitar superbly.
Have a nudge on me.
The new Jimson model features hand wound pickups by Scott. With lots of research and development focussing on the “T” style pickups, Scott has cracked the code for an exceptionally clear, full and articulate set of pickups. These feature Alnico 3 magnets, 42 Awg wire, and shellac potting to give just the right amount of liveliness. The neck pickup wire is coated with Plain enamel coating to help accentuate the higher frequencies and the bridge with a heavy formvar to add a little compression and tightness to the sounds. The Alnico 3 magnets, being weaker than the Alnico 5, help with sustain and clarity, making a really usable warm but chimy neck position.
