Having been friends with legendary bass player Andrew Gouché for years and having already created an Andrew Gouché signature model for the MTD Handmade American line, the music didn’t end there.
The Kingston Andrew Gouché, or the Kingston AG as we call it, began in 2010, with close collaboration between Michael Tobias and the signature artist, with the goal of bringing the best features of the Handmade Andrew Gouché Signature to the Kingston line.
The Kingston AG features a carved alder body, with a stunning burl maple top. Alder makes a very warm, big sounding, slightly compressed, punchy bass. The burl maple top helps to focus the low end, while the purpleheart fingerboard complements the custom smoky purple satin finish, tying everything together for Andrew’s favorite tone and feel. The AG also features proprietary MTD Bartolini soapbar pickups, adding to it’s incredible tone.
