View Full DescriptionPickups that do it all
No one should be limited in their music. So get yourself a guitar that'll always keep your options open. The ‘57 has been loaded with a pair of pickups that strive to give you the most complete performance possible. Vintage ‘50s Lipstick single-coils deliver wide-ranging tone that'll fit any style. So scintillating highs, bellowing lows, and everything in between is available at your fingertips. Navigate them via a three-way switch that lets you choose between the crystal clear sparkle of each pickup or a buttery punch with a lively edge in position three. Plus, with volume and tone shading controls, you can tweak to perfection.
Never stop playing
Playability is something that often goes overlooked in a vintage guitar. Many prioritise a fancy, stylish aesthetic over playing experience. But not with the ‘57. Because an awesome-sounding instrument is useless unless you can play it comfortably and easily. So, at the hands of a maple neck and Pau Ferro fretboard with a sleek action, your hand can naturally and smoothly glide to all positions and chord progressions. Perfect for speedy playing and difficult chord sequences. A cutaway body provides your fretting hand with greater access to the higher end of the scale too. Que the Back to the Future mega riff.
Take centre stage
Excellent playability doesn’t mean style should be overlooked though. Standing out aesthetically is important as well. And, well, just look at this guitar, you will have all the vintage vibes you could wish for when showing off. It’s not only a stunning, limo black finish that keeps all eyes on you - the cream detail and headstock do too. Perfectly complement this amazing style with your awesome playing and eye-catching performance. Don’t be shy. Show off your skills, you’ve worked hard to get them.
