VSS Daphne Blue Light Relic '50s
£1395
Our Vintage Series Daphne Blue Light Relic ‘50s S-Style takes you back in time, with a deep contoured body in alder, nitrocellulose lacquer finish, 1-ply aged White pickguard and tremolo. With indications of the ages, such as discoloration of plastic parts and metal hardware showing signs of oxidation, the Daphne Blue is worn, with the exposed wood evoking its journey and weathering though time.
Other features include our Vintage "C" 1-piece maple neck with 9.5" radius with rolled fretboard edge, rolled and polished Vintage Jumbo frets, bone nut and vintage-style machine heads. A trio of single-coil '50s pickups with staggered polepieces, hand-wound to vintage specifications, ensure this guitar retains the classic sound of the era. All our guitars now include a Fraser tweed hard case as standard.
