Gordon Smith GS-Export Deluxe Semi Solid Vintage Honey Burst

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 GS-Export Deluxe represents the pinnacle of the GS range of production guitars. The semi solid mahogany body with maple cap, complete with f-hole, in spectacular vintage Honey Burst nitro finish with cream binding with a satin finish natural back. The beautifully naturally grained flamed maple top, whilst not carved, excudes those classic ’59 vibes – nothing too perfect, just right!  The thin profile neck is mahogany with rosewood fretboard, medium jumbo frets and the Gordon Smith signature brass nut. Pickups are handwound humbuckers with Gotoh X-Chrome covers and coil split function. The hardware is premium quality to match the status of this guitar in lightly aged Gotoh X-ChromeThe bridge is a tunomatic, and the tuners are gloriously smooth and precise 21:1 ratio Gotoh 510s.

Comes with a Gordon Smith export deluxe hardcase.
