After a couple of weeks we finally got in another James Trussart Deluxe Steelcaster in Rust-O-Matic! And out of the many cool guitars we have received this one has got to be the coolest guitar that has come through the doors!

Trussart is a musician-turned-luthier. The Parisian native began his career playing fiddle, accompanying Cajun singer-songwriter Zachary Richard in the late ’70s, before turning his attention to crafting violins and later guitars in 1980. From his current So-Cal home workshop, Trussart crafts custom steel-bodied guitars, basses and violins in a dazzling array of finishes, reminiscent of shiny chrome resonator instruments and rusty, weathered or fossilized discarded machinery. And the tone is so distinctive that Trussart guitars have become ‘must-have’ instruments in the arsenals of influential artists including Paul Simon, Eric Clapton, Billy Gibbons, Joe Walsh, Jack White, Charlie Sexton, Daniel Lanois, Marc Ribot, Peter Stroud (Sheryl Crow), Rich Robinson (Black Crowes), Sonny Landreth, Joe Perry, Tom Morello, Billy Corgan, The Roots and many, many more.

Check out this beautiful Mesa Boogie Mark V Head and 2×12 Cab combination in Blue Bronco!

The MARK V is really a collection of amplifiers. There are far too many circuits and sounds to think of it as merely an amp. It is also a living history of Mesa. From the groundbreaking MARK I that introduced the world to high-gain with it’s cascading pre amp, to the Mark II – the world’s first high gain Dual Mode Channel Switching amplifier and it’s later siblings that introduced Simul-Class power. From the MARK III that ushered in the era of 3 Channel footswtching performance, to the MARK IV which gave all this power individual control, the MARK V is the embodiment of the last 40 years of guitar amp history.

 This combination is comprised of the Mark V 40th Anniversary Head and the 2×12 Recto Vertical Slant Cab. With matching Mesa Engineering Logos, tolex and grill cloths these to items make for one great looking rig!
