The Leduc PAD is handmade (single-handedly) in France by Christophe Leduc. It is ALL Padouk (even the KNOBS!) and hence named the PAD. Padouk is an open grain African hardwood, quite similar to rosewood, but brighter. What you get is a sweet organic woody tone, buffered by the modern EMG tone. Contrary to popular belief, padouk knobs do not contribute to tone. Being full padouk, this baby resonates and sustains like crazy.
$3000 negotiable. I am open to trades, just text me with your suggestions.
