Joe Williams' Custom Shop San Dimas is a serious instrument built for shredders and metalheads. The Tone Zone pickup delivers a searing, modern voice, and the maple construction contributes to a tight, articulate attack. This is a premium-priced guitar, but the build quality and tone justify the investment for dedicated players.
