Here we’ve landed a 2002 Claxton EM model that’s wide awake and setup for just about anything. Brazilian Rosewood back and sides pairs with Adirondack Spruce on top, 25.4″ scale, 1.75″ nut, and 2.25″ saddle string spacing. A pickup was previously installed and has been removed, leaving the input jack at the tail should you want to wire this guitar for a new pickup; Ebony button at the heel to strap into. The neck carve is a gentle C profile with hints of a soft V, and the setup is superb. All wrapped up in a custom Calton flight case.

Ed Claxton is one of my favorite people to see at the guitar shows, we always smile and laugh and share the bond of music. His guitars are elegant and clean and embody the sort of note energy that makes everyone want to play. Treble strings that sing out the melody while warm clear bass keeps everything intact. Just superb guitars in every way. 
Punchy and energetic, with trebles that cut right through the mix. The EM body is an SJ shape that feels oh so comfy in hand, and Ed lets the quality of the woods speak for themselves with an understated appointment scheme.
