The Blues Queen
“We call it The Blues Queen, but one Thornton owner in Austin, Texas has nicknamed it his Bad Girl.
This Blues player’s dream guitar is right at home turned up loud and belting out blues licks. The unique design combines a Semi-Hollowbody without F holes, Mahogany for woodiness, Maple for brightness and sustain, and Lindy Fralin P-90s to capture it all.”
