Ray Carlton is a builder based out of Carrum Downs here in Victoria that custom makes a wide variety of F-style guitars with top end specifications. Great opportunity to own a Victorian-made, custom guitar!

Utilising an S-style shape as the ground foundation, this example employs a beautifully vibrant Candy Apple Red finish in tandem with hardware sourced from the likes of Gotoh, Tusq, and Switchcraft. Boasting a more modern feeling 9.5" fretboard radius, this example fits beautifully in hand with a slightly fuller C-shape neck. This example has also been upgraded to a HH configuration, featuring an incredible set of Mick Brierley PAF-style pickups. It has also been switched to VVT wiring instead of the traditional VTT. In tandem with being a hardtail, this instrument resonates beautifully unplugged and the replacement Brierley pickups deliver incredible bite and warmth. 

Cosmetically, the instrument is in well maintained condition with very minor scratching found throughout, and little to no evidence of any dings. Hardware is fully functional, and plays well with a low action. Includes a hardcase.
