BAUXITE THE ORIGINS OF TED
LA TED DES ORIGINES
In its classic clothes and with the roundness of its sounds, Bauxite invents the warmth of metal. When blues, rock and pop offer themselves the magical signature of aluminum.
NECK
Two species selected from the great variety offered by French forests.
The neck is a multi-ply of maple and walnut, with a section inspired by the famous Modern C. It is therefore robust and provides excellent playing comfort.
The fingerboard, made of Dordogne walnut, has a 12'' radius which accommodates 22 medium frets.
The key finish is done manually with a stamp.
CREL PICKUPS
Two humbucker-type pickups with finely balanced power take you on the roads of blues rock, via pop.
A winding around alnico 5 magnets, optimized to 12 KOhms, ensures perfect control of your sounds.
Exceptional sustains allow you to intensify all the emotions in your music.
Bauxite produces a clear, well-defined and balanced sound, with a particularly noticeable warmth in the midrange.
You will control the sound of your Bauxite using a 3-position selector, a volume button and a tone equipped with a split so that you can suddenly dive into the sound of the 60s.
ALUMINUM BODY
Lightweight for better playing comfort, it contributes to the sound as much as the look.
The three sound holes of the Ted cases manage to make the guitars sound unplugged without disturbing your neighbors.
As with all guitar cases, aluminum will remember your indiscretions and your belt buckles.
But with the clarity of metal and its reflective power, your Ted guitar will reflect the light, and you'll have a hard time hiding behind its shine.
Depending on your style, you can choose Bauxite in Brute , Sidereal, Galaxy or Black finishes .
