A wonderful first year Gene Baker built b3 Guitars Phoenix w/ Lollar Mini Hums & coil-splitting push-pull tone pot. Featuring 3 Mini Hums rather than the typical Tele bridge pickup. This build also features a 2-point Wilkinson Trem. This guitar was made during the same year that Dr. Know of Bad Brains Phoenix Midi was built. That guitar sold for nearly 10k.
An incredible example with lively pickups and highly responsive trem. Some honest play wear is to be expected, in the form of checking and small dings. Overall this Pheonix is in great playing condition with hardly any fret-wear. Recent professional setup with 10-46 gauge D'Addario NYXL strings.
