The Gravelcaster bodies are crafted with a solid 1 or 2 piece select body with an occasional  book-matched select figured top. Species include Swamp Ash, Black Limba, Mahogany,  and Alder. 

  Standard necks are crafted of hard eastern maple with maple or rosewood fingerboards and fretted with Jescar 47104 or 51110 nickel silver fret wire with hidden tangs. Solid 1/4" inch thick fingerboards have a compound 10-16" radius. Black or clay dot inlays. 25.5” scale length and Madtown's custom C profile. Measuring .812” at the first fret and .895” at the 12th.

 The Gravelcaster is offered in our special thin satin/semi-gloss nitrocellulose lacquer finishes. These finishes characteristics will vary depending on color. Expect to find variety from occasional checks in warm and inviting natural tones to heavily checked-lightly aged blondes and solid colors, as well as gloss finishes.   

 The tuning machines are nickel Kluson Supreme 18:1 ratio. The bridges are Madtown's own nickel plated steel with brass or stainless compensated saddles.  Custom Madtown®  nickel control plates and Skidplates are standard equipment on all Madtown® Gravelcaster guitars. 

 The Gravelcasters are usually loaded with factory direct matched pairs of Lindy Fralin Pickups. Typically either Blues Specials or the Steel Pole 43's. There are some humbucker models and other variants as well. We can do any combination. 

 All Madtown® Guitars are crafted using genuine Bourns Pro Audio potentiometers, premium capacitors, premium Oak Grigsby selector switches, Electrosockets and Pure Tone jacks. All components are tested in-house before use.  

All Madtown® Guitars are strung using DR VERITAS VTE- 10 Handmade Quantum Nickel strings, and ship with 2 additional sets.   

 A custom Madtown® designed G&G Quality Case is standard with all Madtown® Guitars. Our G&G Quality cases are built to custom spec using actual full scale mock templates we made for them to ensure proper, snug fit.
