Spalted Quilt Maple Model 1
Sometimes you just want to go over the top. This guitar was our way of scratching that itch. Between the 5A spalted quilt maple top, the ridiculous radial purfling, the rich dark east Indian rosewood neck, and the just crazy electronics this guitar screams 'over the top' from the rooftops. A special shoutout to Scott Walker guitars for the fantastic boost/buffer circuit as well as his online schematic creation software that was invaluable in figuring out how to make this complex wiring a reality.

Electronics:
This guitar features some really crazy electronics. For the standards it features two Lollar Imperial humbuckers with a master volume and tone control and Walker boost circuit. A push/pull on the volume knob activates the boost and a push/pull on the tone coil taps the humbuckers. The output is then split to a standard output jack as well as a stereo jack to run effects loops with, all powered by a Walker buffer circuit. On the the return on the effects loop is an old-school Sanwa arcade button and mini toggle. With the mini toggle in one position the button works as a global kill switch and allows all effects loop sound through. In the other position the effects loop return is mute until the button is pressed, allowing the player to 'tap in' sounds being returned by the loop.
