Gordon Smith Classic S Rockingham Green

Description

Gordon Smith Guitars are handbuilt by a team of highly skilled luthiers at a workshop in Northamptonshire. Each guitar is crafted from the finest tone wood, and is meticulously finished to create a level of quality many of the bigger manufacturers could only dream of. The fabulous build quality is complemented by the best quality hardware and Gordon Smith’s own hand wound pickups resulting in instruments with superb playability and beautiful tone.

This Classic S is Gordon Smith’s take on an iconic design – hand built with outstanding quality. This spectacular guitar has a premium feel with its lightweight swamp ash body with beautifully rich Rockingham Green  paint job, mint pickguard, and vintage tinted slim profile maple neck and fretboard. The guitar is loaded with premium quality aged Gotoh X-Chrome hardware including silky smooth 21:1 510 tuners. The pickups are three Gordon Smith handwound single coils. This is a superb example of what the guys over at Gordon Smith are capable of – brilliant handcrafted British quality for the same price as a mass-produced import. Comes with a GS ABS hardcase.
