Magic Twanger
Back to Pearlcaster Main Pearlcaster Price List
The "Magic Twanger" is a bolt on single cutaway traditional shape guitar. Personally I never much liked this shape. I thought it was boxy, squarish, unrefined and truly sexless. After I had built several of them the body shape actually started growing on me. I am offering this guitar in any type of pickup configuration imaginable. You can buy a hollow body or solid version. There are over 40 types of wood available for the body. You can order virtually any shape pickguard. Tremolos are available, B Benders, MIDI, Piezoelectric systems.
The Pearlcaster offers even more options.

Magic Twanger
"The Toad"
The Toad Magic Twanger was custom built for Ryan Dunn of California.
It incorporates some of the most beautiful aged French Claro Walnut we have seen.
The body is bound with a 1/4 inch maple strip.
The neck will also be bound to match In this photo the neck is still in preparation.
This is the neck after inlay and before binding and frets Ed Roman's shop will inlay anything.
The boxy, traditional shape, by nature of it's squarish design, simply does not lend itself to gracefulness.
This makes it quite a challenge to do a graceful all access neck and heel joint.
As you can see Ed Roman has met the challenge by hand carving the neck heel
Now the Magic Twanger guitar sits lower and better facilitates playing ease.
