More Photos of Joe Walsh's Esquire

 The Callaham bridge chosen has 3 brass saddles, machined for proper intonation.
 The height of the Dearmond suits the string height of the standard Fender geometry, It mounts flat against the body. I used low profile metal knobs.
 I like using large dots. Dim lights and aging eyes make it a necessity.
 I had some new decals made, Lincoln Durham did the art. The tuners are Schaller locking as per Joe's request.
A simple, no-nonsense guitar. Simplicity has its place in design and functionality. This guitar used only a few parts which makes it look rudimentary. Closer inspection shows that each one was chosen carefully and the end product is suitably refined.
