#25 Old Joe's E Type - privately commissioned build
A Broadcaster style Tonerider lead for tele pickup was chosen plus a set of my favourite parts and a very righteous guitar resulted. Screaming top end with powerful mids and lows. The thick muscular twang in the straight through selector position is really something else.

The reason why single pickup guitars sound so great is that there is no magnetic pull from the front pickup dampening the oscillation of the strings. This really opens things up tone-wise. Leo Fender's original design was without a neck pickup. Until you try one it is hard to imagine how much you can get with a single pickup. It is a party animal compared to it's rather conservative offspring the Telecaster.

As they say Leo got it right first time

Carlton custom built instruments are made to exacting standards using top quality air dried tone-woods and the finest quality, industry standard hardware available. They are built by my hands from start to finish specifically for you. I I won't compromise quality for price. I am dedicated to creating fine tone unlike the multinational guitar factories that are dedicated to making money.
