James Tyler Burning Water 2K –USA 2008, Pete Skermetta Full Build –
Virtually New. 2008 USA James Tyler Burning Water 2K, serial 08183
Alder body, maple neck with Indian Rosewood board, Standard ’59 shape (.875" at the 1st / .975" at the 12th), tall frets,
black 3-ply pickguard
Hipshot locking tuners, Gotoh G2H tremolo
Weight - 7 lbs 10 oz
SSH configuration:
DiMarzio Virtual Vintage 416 neck and middle, Nickel Motor City Pickups 2nd Degree Black Belt in the bridge Controls:
5-way switch, volume, master tone, mid-boost preamp with bypass.
This one was built entirely there by master builder Pete Skermett
Set Up - James Tyler
Condition is excellent — virtually new. No meaningful wear, frets still tall and clean, hardware tight, electronics quiet. It plays exactly like these are supposed to:
fast, articulate, dynamic, with that immediate response and harmonic richness. The mid-boost does its job without getting muddy.
From glassy cleans through the Virtual Vintages to the 2nd Black Belt screaming, it’s dialed.
These don’t show up often in this condition with the full Pete build provenance and the right wood/neck combo.
Serious players and collectors only. No lowballers or tire- kickers.
Price reflects the year, condition, specs, and who built it.
Message if you’re the right buyer.
