Banker Ironman CT Standard Darkburst
This is the first official production model of the new Ironman CT, in Standard trim. This guitar is a one of a kind creation, blending the elements of some of the worlds most beloved electric guitars. A one piece old growth Honduran Mahogany body is mated with a bookmatched Eastern flame maple carved top, meticulously shaped into a deep concave dish that extends all the way into the upper horns of the double cutaway. It is further enhanced with contoured binding that frames the top, and continues around the beautiful dark rosewood fretboard which is fitted with vintage correct Celluloid Nitrate trapezoid inlays and Jescar 45100 nickel steel fretwire. M69 trim rings in the proper bone color house a pair of Throbak Dick Wagner signature high output PAF humbuckers, wired 50's style with accurately recreated Centralab style pots from Vintage Inspired Pickups. The bridge is a wireless ABR-1 from Faber, mounted on Extra Long 6-32 brass studs and thumbwheels, with a solid aluminum Faber stoptail and collarless locking studs. This guitar has a super fast Slim 60's style neck and a gradient darkburst 100% nitrocellulose lacquer finish. Comes with a Limited Edition TKL hardcase, certificate of authenticity, requisite case candy, and a lifetime warranty.
