RWK SET - Padauk by RWK Guitars.

This was made out of padauk, which was probably the messiest wood I ever worked with but I sure like the result. It is in keeping true to the original design with the neck-through construction and the strings anchoring through the body.

Its specifications include:

  • Original ergonomic body design, making guitar a comfort to play.
  • Handcrafted.
  • Solid through-neck construction, with through-body string mounting for maximum sustain.
  • Translucent finish with non-toxic materials.
  • Ebony fretboard, 24 3/4" scale, 10" radius, 1 9/16" width at the nut.
  • Frets: 24, a full 2 octaves, width-.106", height-.036".
  • Solid brass nut.
  • Tailpiece: Schaller Non-Tremolo Roller Bridge but with custom holes drilled through the base to achieve the neck-through functionality.
  • Schaller Tuners.
  • Pickups: Golden Age traditional Alnico 5, wax-potted, fabric-taped, brass mounted, Dual Coil/Humbucker style, with coil-tapping.
    Separate volume and tone controls.
