What We Think
Condition: Used, Excellent
SP Luthier Notes: This instrument has been carefully inspected and, if necessary, serviced by our certified luthier to ensure it is in excellent playing condition.
The Comins GCS-1ES is a refined semi-hollow that delivers warmth, clarity, and excellent balance. Its laminated spruce top and sapele body create a smooth, articulate response with plenty of resonance, while the custom wound Kent Armstrong humbuckers provide rich, detailed tones that work equally well clean or driven. The push/pull coil split adds extra versatility, giving access to brighter, more open textures when needed. A comfortable medium C neck and lightweight feel make it easy to settle into right away. Smooth, responsive, and highly musical, this GCS-1ES offers a polished voice with plenty of flexibility.
Manufacturer's Description from Comins Guitars
The GCS-1 is a solidly built semi-hollow guitar designed for musicians looking for a well-made practical and roadworthy musical instrument. Inherently versatile, it can produce a myriad of tonalities suitable for blues, rock, country, and jazz playing. It adorns a laminated flame Maple top with a laminated Sapele back, and the sides/internal block structure are routed from a solid wood core. This design yields a balanced and even articulation with enhanced sustain characteristics. Included is a TKL hard-shell case. A version with a U.S. made Bigsby vibrato is also available.
