Peter Cook Axis Guitar - One of only 8 made. .


Well, the time has come. . . . .

Ladies and Gentlemen, the Peter Cook Axis Guitar!



I would normally, at this point, insert some script and then add
image and them some more script but I think on this occasion,
I'll let you feast your eyes on this little lot! :)












I would like to bet that you scrolled up and down for another look!!

When I did the feature about Peter's work, I detailed the Axis Bass
I have, which includes all the details about the electrics - they are 
the same on the guitar.

If you scroll down on this link, you will see more details and a Les
Paul type, whith what looks like the same controls.

The circuit designer. 

Tony Koorlander  

This guitar is just Quality.

At present, I don't really have the tricks to put sound clips on 
the posts - I am going to, in the future and when I do, this will
be the first I do.

Peter was over the moon whe I told him I had tracked another
one down.
He hasn't seen this in real life, since it left his workshop!!

At some point soon, I intend to re-unite their acquaintance! :)

I think that will do for now.

Go on, have another scroll up and down!!

Cheers. :)

Edit:

I was waiting for Peter to confirm the details of the wood that he used,
as I was pretty sure but not 100%.
This is his reply.

"Hi Eric
It's a Rosewood Neck & Body with Maple stripes"

Friday again!! I thought that this would be the last post on this subject but as I've experienced so far - I get to a point in time where I think I've just about covered everything and then something else crops up!! Only yesterday, I managed to...

- Peter Cook Axis Bass And Guitar. . . . .
I was going to do the Axis and some of the music press stuff, from that period but I now find that I have all sorts of extra Axis Stuff. "At this time I also developed and made the ‘Axis’ guitar and bass with an active, on board parametric tonal system"...
