New Michael Kelly Custom Collection 50 (CC50) Fralin released. Michael Kelly worked with good friend and amazing pickup maker Lindy Fralin to find the right pickups and mods for this short run model…
“The Custom Collection 50 Fralin version sounds and plays every bit as good as it looks. We use his Steel Poled 43 pickups which are hot, full, rich and dynamic. These pickups retain traditional tele sounds but with the output of a classic P90. We’ve included our Phase Reverse Mod with an added push-pull feature that reverses the phase of both pickups together for an ultra-cool mid-range country tele sound that will cut through any mix. The tops come in striped ebony or rosewood (with matching rosewood headstock). The ebony top model comes with a white pearl pickguard and the rosewood model comes with a 3 ply black pickguard”.
“We make the Custom Collection 50 Fralin’s all as a short-run product. That means we offer them from time to time, always in a small quantity, meaning you are getting a hard to find limited run guitar at a very affordable price… Enjoy!”
