Dark & Stormy is intended as a classy jazz axe. The figured black walnut carved top hides a fully chambered black walnut body, and is complimented by an ebony fretboard and headplate with pearl inlays. Designed around seven heavy-gauge smooth-wound strings, it features custom-made nickel hardware from the Hipshot bridge to the split-shaft Gotoh tuners. For added versatility, the Bareknuckle "Stormy Monday" humbucking pickup is connected to a three-way switch for coil splitting and parallel wiring options.
