Built upon the standard Cyclops specs, with a maple neck and fingerboard, flame maple top, and lightweight swamp ash body, the Will Putney signature adds standard upgrades such as Hipshot locking tuners and luminlay side dots.

The specs that take this from “a guitar” to “something else” required collaboration from two legendary companies in the guitar market - EMG Pickups, and Electro-Harmonix. At Will’s request, we added a single EMG 81 bridge pickup, as well as a built in Electro-Harmonix Pitch Fork pedal circuit, with full controls of the pedal, and a large aluminum push button to control the on/off function of the effect, in either latching or momentary mode. This allows for quick access to trigger whammy-style pitch effects with your picking hand, or simply turn a fixed pitch effect on or off without tap dancing on your pedalboard.
