The Midnight Purple finish gives it plenty of visual attitude, while custom glow in the dark pickup covers, knobs, and tremolo arm grip make this one unmistakably different. As an in house built instrument, there are some minor finish imperfections present as can be seen in the accompanying photoset. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFast 24 Fret Maple Neck\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"isSelectedEnd\"\u003eThe maple neck measures .812 inches at the 1st fret and .873 inches at the 12th, filling the palm without feeling cumbersome. A 12 inch fingerboard radius, 25.5 inch scale length, and 24 frets provide a familiar platform with plenty of room up top. The frets are Plek leveled and crowned for consistent playability across the fingerboard.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHand Wound Gabriel Guitars JLP60 Pickups\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"isSelectedEnd\"\u003eA hand wound set of Gabriel Guitars JLP60 pickups gives this Runabout a smooth, woody voice inspired by Stratocaster style pickups from 1963 to 1965. Staggered Alnico 5 magnet slugs and 42 gauge copper wire produce an average resistance of approximately 6.3K. Expect warm, rounded mids, focused lows, and a smooth top end that retains clarity as you dig in.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eVintage Inspired Tone with Flexible Controls\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"isSelectedEnd\"\u003eThe JLP60 set is stagger wound, hand assembled, and fully potted in 100 percent paraffin wax to control unwanted microphonics. A 5 way switch works alongside master volume, master tone, and a mid pickup blend control, giving the Runabout plenty of room to move from glassy cleans into warmer, more expressive sounds.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eTremolo and Locking Tuners\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"isSelectedEnd\"\u003eA Korean vintage style synchronized tremolo provides expressive pitch control, while Fender 6 in line locking tuners and an unbleached bone nut round out the hardware. Chrome appointments complement the Midnight Purple finish, and a hard shell case is included.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul data-spread=\"false\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBody Wood: Alder\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNeck Wood: Maple with Pau Ferro Fingerboard\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eInlays: Offset Dot\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eScale Length: 25.5 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFrets: 24, Plek Leveled and Crowned\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNut: Unbleached Bone\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFingerboard Radius: 12 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFret Dimensions: .1035 inches Width, .0435 inches Height\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNeck Thickness: .812 inches at 1st Fret, .873 inches at 12th Fret\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTuners: Fender 6 in line Locking\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBridge: Korean Vintage Style Synchronized Tremolo\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePickups: Hand Wound Gabriel Guitars JLP60 Set\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePickup Magnets: Staggered Alnico 5 Magnet Slugs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePickup Wire: 42 Gauge Copper Wire\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePickup Resistance: Approximately 6.3K Average\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePickup Voicing: 1963 to 1965 Stratocaster Style Wind\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePickup Potting: 100 Percent Paraffin Wax\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eControls: Master Volume, Mid Pickup Blend, Master Tone, 5 Way Switch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFinish: Midnight Purple with Gun Stock Oil\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHardware: Chrome\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCustom Appointments: 3D Printed Glow in the Dark Pickup Covers, Knobs, and Tremolo Arm Grip\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIncluded Accessories: Hard Shell Case\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cem\u003eThis electric guitar ships fully insured with signature required.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Gabriel Guitars","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46149199593663,"sku":"415776","price":1333.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0899\/5804\/files\/Gabriel_Guitars_Runabout_Midnight_Purple_with_Hard_Shell_Case-6a9b576ca287b.jpg?v=1794252664","url":"https:\/\/fivestarguitars.com\/products\/gabriel-guitars-runabout-midnight-purple-with-hard-shell-case","provider":"Five Star Guitars","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
