Miller Barncaster ELT134 – SOLD

Miller Barncaster ELT134 - SOLD

There’s nothing quite like the elegance and “no nonsense” simplicity of a nice Tele. Especially when you are holding one as wonderfully made as Alastair Miller’s latest Barncaster guitar! Using a piece of 150-year-old Pine, Miller has gone with a 1 9/16″ body depth, making the guitar feel more streamlined than a standard Tele. It also helps make the guitar very lightweight, at just over 6.2 lbs! The bridge pickup is taken from a 50’s Fender Lap Steel, and the neck pickup is custom wound by Miller himself. The neck is carved into a beautiful Fender 50’s “U” profile, with a vintage 3-brass-saddle bridge and “relic” niro finish completing the package. This guitar absolutely screams mojo from top to bottom. Well done Mr. Miller!
