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.
