Vintage Classic Fool's Gold
£1695
Our Vintage Classic Fool's Gold S-Style takes you back to the '60s, with a deep contoured body in alder, nitrocellulose lacquer finish, 3-ply Mint Green pickguard and tremolo. With subtle indications of the ages, such as discoloration of plastic parts and metal hardware showing slight oxidation, this guitar maintains its sheen while the distinctive checking evokes its journey and weathering though time.
Other features include our Vintage "C" maple neck with 9.5" radius slab rosewood fretboard with rolled edges and clay dots, rolled and polished Vintage Jumbo frets, bone nut and vintage-style machine heads. A trio of single-coil '60s pickups, 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.
