Abernethy Old King
Justin Abernethy, AKA Bottom Line Guitars, operates a small one man shop in Guadalupe, California with a primary focus on
building high quality, custom electric guitars.
He uses original vintage parts and materials when available.
I have fallen under the charm of his Old King model:
It's a retro offset beauty, with a pair of gorgeous vintage 1965 Dearmond gold foil pickups.
But what gets me is that little hook in the pickguard...
Every guitar built has a different set of features; the pink model has Mcnelly Custom Silver foil PUs, for instance.
It just depends on whatever parts are available to the builder at the time, I guess...
The headstock has also a charm of its own:
Every guitar comes with a certain degree of finish distress (yellowing, checking, dings, nicks).
So you get a unique instrument each time....
