Product Description
Andertons are pleased to offer this awe-inspiring Castedosa Conchers Standard electric guitar with built-in La Raza Fuzz Circuit. It’s finished in an eye-catching Aged Sonic Blue that has a beautiful yellowy/green overtone that is often found on vintage pre-CBS, Sonic Blue Fender guitars that have obviously had a life under the stage lights of countless clubs and bars. The aesthetics are perfectly finished off with beautifully aged hardware and a Dark Mole Tint neck finish.
At only 8.9 lbs this double-cut offset powerhouse feels comfortable in all playing positions. It's resonant and bright with plenty of harmonic overtones. Crafted with Alder the Castedosa Conchers has a balanced musical tone that seems to fit with any playing style. Its rich Rosewood fingerboard feels good under the fingers and the Mastery Bridge adds a pleasing resonance to every note. With its built-in M.A.D La Raza fuzz circuit and premium built quality, it's easy to get carried away with creativity when playing this outstanding Castedosa guitar.
Key Features
- Mastery Bridge: The ultimate offset-styled vibrato bridge available! Utilising a ‘tabless’ full-contact fulcrum and string plate in conjunction with a custom-made, carbon steel valve spring the Mastery vibrato system offers unparalleled vibrato accuracy with piano-like harmonic overtones.
- Built-in Fuzz: Experience expression like never before with the built-in M.A.D La Raza Octave Fuzz with dedicated controls and switching system.
- Quartersawn Roasted Maple: Select cuts of quartersawn of maple are chosen and then roasted for unparalleled strength and stability.
Moore Analog Devices Fuzz Circuit
This Conchers Standard’s secret weapon is the built-in fuzz circuit that’s hidden under the hood, designed and developed by Connor R. Moore of M.A.D. Connor first had the opportunity to work with Carlos Lopez while working as an apprentice at the Fender Custom Shop. Connor's love of circuits and pedal building quickly pricked Carlos’s interest and in no time the two of them set out developing the La Raza Octave Fuzz. With easily accessible switches for switching the fuzz on and off as well as an Octave switch and thumbwheels for gain and volume, it's easy to dial in your ultimate Fuzz tone and get creative!
Carlos Lopez
For over 20 years Carlos Lopez has been gaining a reputation as one of the all-time greatest electric guitar builders. Spending 16 years with Fender working his way up from the factory floor to the Custom Shop then to Todd Krouse’s apprentice in 2017 and finally to Master Builder in 2019. During his time with the Fender, his solid reputation led him to build guitars for many of the greats including Eric Clapton, Jeff Beck, Robbie Robertson, Kenny Wayne Shepherd, Robin Trower and Eric Johnson. After leaving Fender in 2021 he founded Castedosa Guitars in 2022 with the hope of continuing his growth in guitar building as well as giving him the opportunity to work with his wife Stephanie who winds the pickups, in turn creating a family-led business.
Premium Fit and Finish
No stones are left unturned in making sure this handcrafted Conchers Standard is nothing but perfect. Premium selected tonewoods in combination with meticulous craftsmanship and attention to detail as well as superior hardware and electronics make this double-cut offset electric guitar a force to be reckoned with.
Castedosa TS Mini Humbuckers
These hand-wound Castedosa TS mini humbucking pickups are the perfect balance between power, fidelity and depth. These low-wind vintage style mini humbuckers are beautifully open with perfect note separation and clarity, tight lows, and pristine highs. Wound in-house by Carlos’s wife Stephanie using premium components these rich-sounding pickups perfectly complement the prestigious quality of this master-built guitar.
