The Troubadour is a really remarkable custom Guitar, and pays tribute to the historic West Hollywood landmark The Troubadour that Bill Asher frequented in the late 70's to today. I chose Seymour Duncan Antiquity PAFs paired with the Korina wood body and neck for the raw, vintage vibe and music I hear at this iconic venue. I have been inspired by many nights of music there to go back into the shop and create a new hybrid guitar.
The First Troubadour guitar was sold to Lindsey Buckingham for the song Silver Springs with Fleetwood Mac.
