JS STANDARD VINTAGE SERIES
£3,670




Premium grade mahogany was selected for this JS Standard VS. For extra resonance the body is constructed in two pieces (front and back) allowing the inside to be chambered, while still maintaining a good balance on the strap. The neck is carved from quarter sawn mahogany, creating a very stable neck with a great feel. Sympathetically aged hardware and nitro cellulose lacquer with fine checking gives this JS a real 60s vibe.
All hardware is high quality, and includes a roller tuneomatic bridge with nickel plated brass saddles and Maestro Vibrola tremolo which stays in tune. The vintage style Gotoh tulip tuners allow fine tuning and smooth operation. The guitar is fitted with two high quality RS Guitarworks 500k CTS pots with a Superpot for the volume both with very even tapers. A 50’s wiring scheme is used in all our guitars as we have found that it minimises treble loss when rolling back the volume.
A set of Bare Knuckle humbuckers are fitted with a Stormy Monday in the neck position and a Riff Raff Humbucker bridge for a great versatility of classic sounds.
