Galaxie Safari Guitars
A ton of work goes into these Safari guitars after they are shipped from the small factory in China where they are made. Even though the linden wood bodies are light weight and super resonant and the necks are straight and comfy, I still need to dive in and re-route pickguards, replace pickups, switches, do a fret level, re-route trem cavity, tighten and lube trem parts and do our Stage Ready Setup. The results are fantastic. Low action and punchy fat tone.
