The Music Zoo is very proud to be an authorized dealer of Wire Instruments, built by luthier and tech Earnie Bailey in the Pacific Northwest. We met Earnie at NAMM 2018, and became super interested in his guitars, which take inspiration from some rare and unique English electric guitars of the 1960s and ’70s. Earnie has done work for everyone from Black Flag and James Hetfield to Pavement and Eddie Vedder. He’s also most known for being the tech for Nirvana, as well as the Foo Fighters. This guitar is a Concorde IV in Tri-Burst, over a flame maple body with a walnut stringer down the middle, a sapele neck and birdseye maple fretboard. The guitar has two Pete Biltoft pickups with Wire’s own unique wiring via two lever switches, giving you just about any tone you’d want out of the guitar, including some you weren’t expecting, with the high and low-pass filters for on-board ‘cocked-wah’-esque sounds! The pickup outside coils are overwound, and the inside coils are underwound for coil tapping pickup configurations via the upper switch on the metal plate.The guitar has a full 25″ scale, and comfortable 1-11/16″ nut width.
