If you like your necks on the chunky side, then this is the El Camino for you. The 'baseball bat' neck measures 0.9" thick at the first fret and just over 1" at the 12th. The neck has an oil finish and the body is old-school TV Yellow with the grain nicely visible. The headstock is done in matching TV Yellow with black mother of pearl inlay. A Lollar 52-T series pickup with Esquire style switching and a brass saddle bridge rounds out the vibe. The bridge features Wilkinsons adjustable compensated locking mechanism for greater intonation stability. A hardshell case is included.
