This exceptional Schroom Gremlin Gremocaster was expertly hand built in the USA by Tony Schroom in 2014 using the finest materials and top notch craftsmanship. This instrument is in excellent cosmetic condition showing little to no signs of play wear throughout (see photos). This guitar features a one piece swamp ash body that is nicely figured and extremely lightweight. This guitar weighs in at an incredible 5lb 8oz! It is amazingly resonant and it is very loud when played unplugged. You can feel this guitar vibrating against your body while playing it. This guitar has was built using string through body construction and with a Fender Mustang style bridge saddle, this guitar's intonation is spot on. The pickups were handwound by Tony and they sound spectacular in this instrument. These pickups are very articulate and snappy but are not overly bright or “ice pick” like. The electronics layout is very familiar and features one volume control, two tone controls and a five way pickup selector switch. The electronics used in this guitar are all top notch and I’ve included a photograph of the spec sheet. The neck profile on this instrument is that of a medium chunky rounded C shape with a 1 11/16” nut width. This neck feels incredibly nice in the hand - it is very comfortable and easy to play. This guitar plays absolutely superb up and down the Brazilian rosewood fingerboard with low smooth action. The fingerboard has a 9.5” radius and the guitar is a 25.5” scale. The Vintage Tall fret wire shows no wear. The flamed maple used for the neck is stunning especially paired with figured Brazilian rosewood fingerboard and the abalone dot inlays. This guitar is housed in a very nice Fender molded plastic hard shell case and includes its original COA and spec sheet from Schroom Guitars. If you are looking for an outstanding quality hand built electric guitar, we would highly recommend taking a chance on this Gremlin.
