What sets The Leisure Caster Apart:
Simplicity, beauty, and craftsmanship are the North Star, guiding every detail of this instrument.
Built to be played across genres, anywhere, anytime. This Leisure Caster is handcrafted using natural finishes, including milk paint on the poplar body and a French polished maple neck for a rich, high-gloss finish.
Clear Coated in a thin poly urethane for a high gloss finish, the splatter and dark chocolate base coat are from an all natural low VOC milk paint
The neck is finished in shellac using a wipe on technique known as a "French polish", enhancing the wood grain and all of its natural beauty. It has been a traditional finish used for classical instruments for generations, giving the neck a natural feel that allows the hand to glide along free from resistance.
Shellac flakes are made from the purified resinous secretion of the female lac bug (Kerria lacca), which is harvested from trees in India and Southeast Asia. This raw resin, known as lac, is collected, washed, melted, filtered for impurities, and dried into thin sheets, which are then broken into the flakes.
Equipped with a single bridge Gold Foil Humbucking pickup hand wound by Arcane Inc.
One big Volume knob just below the bridge and a tone control near the neck keeps it straightforward and unapologetically rock ’n’ roll, ready to plug in and play at a moment’s notice.
