SP Luthier Notes: The truss rod and bridge were fully adjusted. All of the frets were polished, recrowned and leveled. No further work was required.
Hand-built in the U.S.A., this guitar is a perfect player's partner, blending vintage vibe with rock-solid reliability. Finished in a gorgeous nitrocellulose lacquer, it evokes the classic cool of a '56 Chevy Bel Air and feels just as smooth in your hands. Crafted from old-growth torrefied Nootka cedar and a one-piece rock maple neck, this instrument is designed to stand the test of time, becoming a true investment in your musical journey. Unlike an "as-is" instrument, this guitar has been given an expert luthier setup, including a full truss rod and bridge adjustment, as well as a complete fret polish, recrown, and level. This isn't just a guitar; it's a perfectly prepped powerhouse, ready for the stage or studio!
