Carilion Polaris 6 - Mendel's Zelda - 30th December 2017
So here she finally is - the new build for Mendel bij de Leij Artist Page of the endlessly brutal Aborted.
As always, Mendel and I went a bit mad on the spec for this one as, well, sometimes more is more. Check it out and give it a share if you like it!
- Polaris 6.
- Reaver headstock.
- 25.5" scale length.
- Set neck construction.
- Serial #141.
--------------------------------------------------
- One piece Burl Maple top.
- Old stock (one piece) Brazilian Mahogany body.
- 9 piece Baked Maple / Ebony laminate neck.
- Ebony fingerboard, bound in Ebony.
- Burl Maple head veneer (front and back).
- Hipshot locking tuners.
- Hipshot Tremolo bridge.
- Graphtech Black Tusq nut.
- Jescar Stainless Steel frets.
- Luminlay side dots.
- Fishman Fluence pickups.
- Dunlop strap locks.
- Polyester lacquered / Poseidon burst.
- Inlay done by hand in Brass.
---------------------------------------------------
First time using the Fishman pickups (finally!) and I wasn't disappointed - things sound great! Keep an eye on Mendels page for sound clips, tone demos and playthroughs, they're on their way!
Aborted head out on a massive US tour soon - To all my American friends, get to a show and witness the blasts first hand. This band are so impressively tight live I want to cry every time I see them. Unbelievably good.
Have a good weekend! :D
