Patrick James Eggle is very much the modern day hero of British guitar design. In addition to being the man behind Faith acoustics and the recently revived Shergold brand, Eggle is best known for crafting boutique guitars of the very highest order.
The 96 is one of his very best, with stunning aesthetics, flawless playability and unrivalled tonal quality, it's a marker for other guitar manufacturers to learn from.
The classic Alder body features Eggle's heat aged nitro finish in Lake Placid Blue. Offering superior resonance, it allows the wood to breathe which delivers better definition and clarity and doesn't stifle the tonal quality of the body - whilst looking like a vintage beauty.
The 96 features a Roasted Maple neck and Rosewood fingerboard, with a 25.5" scale length and Shallow C profile. The 10"-16" compound fretboard radius is comfortable with smooth Jumbo Jescar stainless steel frets and thanks to a floating tremolo bridge, you get supreme tuning stability and intonation.
With a powerhouse H/S/S configuration of MOJO pickups, you get substantial tonal options. It covers all your tonal bases with ease, the 96 is a monster guitar, perfect for any playing situation.
Guitars like this are the reason that Patrick James Eggle is so highly respected, a true modern day master.
