AJ Lucas / Obelisk / 2024 / Clear Osmo Oil / Guitar For Sale
This Obelisk electric has a body made from the mahogany legs of a pool table that came from a working men's club. The neck is a beautiful piece of quilted maple and the fingerboard reclaimed Indian rosewood.
The pickups comprise a pair of P90 pickups - the bridge wound by myself and the neck a 1990s Gibson model. The combination of these pickups with the resonant mahogany body makes for a very responsive guitar. There are two controls and a pickup selector switch. The pointer knob controls a 5-way tone switch with a wide variety of tone shaping on offer. In the first position the control has no effect, while the other four positions bleed the signal to earth via different values of capacitor through a common choke. The control cavity has a magnetic wooden cover that can be opened without the need for a screwdriver.
The finish is Osmo Oil which is tactile and shows off the beauty of the woods and is quite hard-wearing. The machine heads are Gotoh 'Kluson' style - elegant and functional.
Nut width: 42mm
Weight: 3230g
Scale length 650mm
The guitar comes with a Hiscox Pro II case.
A J Lucas Luthier, UK 
I believe passionately in the connection between player and instrument. The guitar should not be a barrier between the musician and their music and so I builds tactile guitars that one can feel a visceral connection with. As much as possible I use reclaimed and local woods without compromising the quality of the instruments. I was originally trained in architecture and my work is informed by a sense of form and structure.
I build mainly steel string flat-top, electric and classical guitars to my own designs but also make mandolin family instruments and ukuleles.
