GOWEN T CUSTOM ELECTRIC GUITAR
This is our T
The Gowen T series is our take on the original bolt-on solid body electric guitar. Built around a slab body, fixed bridge, and our own UK-wound T-type pickups, each model is available with either the Gowen banana or a traditional T-style headstock.
The T No.1 has a flat top and back, with no contouring, while the T No.2 adds body contouring for increased comfort. Both share the same construction, hardware, and pickup designs and both are made by us, to the same standards, in our London workshop.
​
Both our T models are fitted with our own unique Gowen T pickups, designed by us and custom wound for us in the United Kingdom.​​
