As seen on tour with Joey Santiago of the Pixies this summer, our Nebula Custom DX blends classic styling with our proprietary heelless neck system on a poplar body. The wood for these particular instruments is hand-picked by our head luthier to finish this model off to be perfectly balanced, weight and tone-wise. The Hollowcore aluminum system neck bolts into the body directly under the neck pickup for unlimited access, resonance, sustain, and ultra-low playing action. The finish is a 16-coat House of Kolor white pearl with real bronze and gold dust that will age beautifully over the instrument's life.
This guitar is the instrument played by Joe Santiago of the Pixies and shows signs of roadware.
