The Gowen T No 2 adds a forearm and tummy contour
and is available with either the Gowen banana headstock or a traditional T-style headstock and the neck is available in a 12" or 9.5" radius.
All our T No 2 guitars are unique instruments and individually priced, starting at around £1374 for a new T No 2 shape guitar in a solid wood body (acrylic lacquer) including a single humbucker in the bridge position.
Our T bodies are normally made from Cherry, Alder, London Plane, Ash, Walnut or Mahogany / Sapele, with more expensive woods and figured tops adding to the base cost of the instrument.
All our T No 2 guitars now come fitted with our own Gowen pickups . We've developed our pickups in partnership with one of the UK's top boutique pickup manufacturers to create a unique pickup voicing to our own specification.
