When the worlds of skateboarding and guitar playing collide, there can be only one outcome...
Want a tough, low key look that can get the job done? The Blackout may be the round, warm sounding weapon for you. The hardtail bridge adds adjustability when you need it. Like a ninja in a thunderstorm, the Blackout is adept at swiftly handling whatever is thrown at it! To build such a beast, one must understand the curvature and properties of a skate deck along with figuring out how to manipulate it's 3/8" thickness to contain the componentry of an electric guitar. Everything from bridge to nut parallel string spacing with a flat top plain to keeping the underside flat was figured in. Grab your favorite lap slide and enjoy the sustain, but be prepared to answer a lot of questions when you are seen with this!
