GOTOH SD90 TUNERS

Combining vintage style & looks, with a modern 15:1 gear ratio, the Gotoh SD90's tuning machines have smooth action and make it easier to fine-tune your instrument.

NITROCELLULOSE LACQUER

The SB59 features a stunning deep gloss Nitro finish.

Nitro finishes age in a very different way to the modern Poly Finishes. They also resonate differently.

As nitro ages it cracks which is often from expanding and shrinking during change of temperature.

This guitar will continue to age as you play it and make it your own!

All of the internal components in the SB59 are top of the range to make sure that your guitar plays and sounds as good as it looks!

INCLUDING:

  • 3 Way Switch: Switchcraft

  • Output Jack: Switchcraft

HIGH GRADE MAPLE TOP & ONE PIECE MAHOGANY BACK

 Featuring a solid, highly figured Maple top this guitar looks absolutely stunning in any lighting. The one piece Mahogany body improves sustain and allows the guitar to fully resonate throughout.

Seymour Duncan CLASSIC 59 PICKUPS

Designed in the spirit of the original P.A.F. humbuckers of the 1950s, the Classic 59 pickups are extremely versatile and pair well with most styles of playing. With sweet sustain, full-sounding chords and clear, bright attack. Made with a few refinements to slightly modernise the design and make it more adaptable to different styles.

GOTOH HARDWARE

Fitted with a Gotoh GE101A-NI Tailpiece & Gotoh GE-104B-NI Bridge to ensure that your guitar can be set-up and played to its best ability - whilst still keeping true to a 'Vintage Correct' look. The SB59 also features Ivoroid binding material, Pearl crown inlays and Gold Speed knobs.

EBONY FRETBOARD & HEADSTOCK CAP

The rich, dark colour of the Ebony fretboard beautifully compliments the flamed maple top on the SB59. Ebony produces a slightly brighter tone compared to Rosewood which pairs nicely with the Seymour Duncan's to create a great bluesy tone that cuts through the mix.

The Ebony headstock cap is inlayed with a pearloid 'Eastman' Logo to finish off the look.
