Empress, Korina Body & Neck

 
This was the first guitar that inspired the DRP program. The top is "Tree of Life" quality and is finished in a custom "Double Old Gold." A one piece Korina body and one piece Korina neck are used, making this guitar very light weight and tonally rich. TCM Narrowfield mini humbuckers are used in the neck and bridge position, with a TCM Single in the middle. The combination of pickups makes this guitar extremely versatile for playing styles reaching from jazz to hard rock. The solo switch acts as a complete bypass and turns the pickups "on and off."

FLE II, Swamp Ash Body

 
The TCM forum is one of our greatest assetts and when they asked Terry to design a second forum guitar, the "FLE 2" was born...This single cutaway mockup of the Taurus Standard features a swamp ash body, mahogany neck and rosewood headstock veneer. Our newest pickup, the TCM TOL, was developed specifically for this guitar and has since become very popular in our other models as well. The FLE prototype is currently Terry's stage guitar, which is also finished in our first ever "Gold Top."
