El Welker E-L Series Leather Archtop Guitar
CustomMade by Larry Welker
This eL Welker e-L Series Guitar features my exclusive, art deco style, naturally tanned leather, from the last tannery in the USA to do vegetable tanning. 24.75 inch scale. It also features my in house designed pearl mosaic inlay on the rosewood fretboard. The finger rest is made of two … natural phenolic rods in a leather covered lacewood holder. These can be "plucked" bass drum and snare style, useful for conveying an idea to your drummer, or if you're coordinated enough, to self accompany during that solo gig. Phenolic rods are also used in the custom tailpiece which helps soften those wild tailpiece harmonics. The ebony tone and volume knobs are like everything else made at eL Welker Guitars, hand made and custom built. This e-L Series guitar boasts a single Venetian cutaway on a laminated poplar body with a single X brace, covered in naturally tanned leather, attached to a one-piece, French polished mahogany neck. Measurements are: 1.75" neck at the nut, 24.75" scale, 3.25" X 17" body@ the lower bout. Leather headstock inlay engraved w/ eL Welker logo. Ebony volume and tone knobs. German silver hardware includes fret wire, bridge feet, bridge elevators, tail piece collets, and the hinge. Single body-mounted, Vermont-made Kent Armstrong PAF pickup w/ 12 pole-pieces. Smile and tear-drop sound holes. Hand tooled detailing on both edges of body rims. Premium TKL arch top hard shell case included...
