Often players take their main guitar, you know... the one that just feels right, and add subtle upgrades to it to accentuate the positive—taking a good thing and making it better. Features include alder or ash body (depending on finish), lightly figured maple neck with “V” or “C” shape, 22 medium-jumbo frets, abalone dot inlays, Sperzel Trim-lok machine heads, three Custom Shop “Vintage-Noiseless” pickups, 3-ply parchment pickguard (gold anodized on Black), aged white plastic parts, and custom vintage 2-point synchronized tremolo. Black Tolex Fender case included.
