THE MADTOWN® GRAVELCASTER

The Madtown® Gravelcaster offers up an impressive host of solutions for the modern player. It sports our custom neck profile and wider nut width,  a 10"-16" compound fingerboard radius and 22 frets. The custom Madtown control plates are designed to give the player more room between the switch and knob, while the Skidplate and sculpted rear body contour system provide for a much greater level of upper register fingerboard access and player comfort than has ever been offered before.  Pair all of that with the latest in state-of-the-art custom handwound pickups and electronics technology and the Gravelcaster is born.
