James Trussart® Steelcaster - Sold

Equally at home being played on stage or on display as a piece of art, you will know you have something special the moment you lay your hands on this instrument, every Trussart is loaded with unique custom details. The Steelcaster has the look and feel of a vintage instrument with while also featuring our exclusive hollow steel body and custom metal appointments. The steel, while also being the perfect medium to display the beautiful Trussart custom finishes, also has tonal advantages. The Trussart Steelcaster tone is a uniquely annunciated sound that, combined with the resonant qualities of the hollow steel body can range from sweet, crystal clear tones to aggressive screaming lead tones. The construction of these instruments is only half of the story, the other half is the finish, every instrument comes with a history and a slight element of neglect, of decay, so it has a personality of it’s own.

This Trussart has found it’s way into the hands of many guitarists including Billy Gibbons, Joe Walsh, Robert Cray, Tom Morello (Rage against the Machine, Audioslave), Billy Corgan (Smashing Pumpkins), Pearl Jam, Marc Ribot, Metallica and Joe Perry, to name only a few. Also Bob Rock from whom we acquired this particular instrument.
