The Firecaster

The Firecaster is a telecaster-style guitar, built under commission by a Tamworth guitarist. The customer had an existing maple Warmoth neck, and wanted an Andy Taylor Custom to go with it. Keep an eye out for it gigging around the Tamworth Country Music Festival once normal life resumes!
