Launched in 54, the 2-Tone Sunburst finish, Tobacco Burst, was the first off the production line. With an Ash body and Maple neck the iconic design was to set a precedent in future of guitar design. Our 54 keeps the tradition of the original design, with one significant exception: hand-wound PAF 59 in the bridge position.
