Gordon Smith GS Deluxe Heritage in Trans Blue with Maple fretboard
This Gordon Smith GS Deluxe guitar is a classic Set Neck, Deep Solid Body, with Twin GSG Humbuckers providing everything from warm jazz, to tearing rock crunch sounds. Wound in-house, they have Flat Black covers with nickel pole pieces. The guitar is a double cutaway model allowing great access all across the fingerboard.
This GS Deluxe features a unique GSG one-piece maple neck, with a smooth satin finish, and maple fingerboard. A standard feature with Gordon Smith guitars is a hand filed and polished Brass Nut. This helps maximise sustain and string brightness, and is also very durable.
The GS Deluxe body is made of a solid piece of poplar, to match the neck, lightly stained and satin finished. The top is Gloss Heritage Trans Blue over highly figured Flamed Sycamore, framed with scraped Binding. This guitar also has a Matching Headstock featuring the same figured Sycamore Heritage Trans Blue finish as the Body.
This guitar has Nickel Tune-o-Matic Stoptail Bridge and deluxe Machine heads adding to its high end appeal. In terms of controls, it has a three way toggle switch, and separate volume and tone controls for each pickup. The Humbuckers are Coil Tapped for even more versatility and single coil twang.
The GS Deluxe comes complete with a Gordon Smith branded hard case and a certificate of authenticity. This is a guitar built to perform to a high standard right here in the UK, and at a price that is very impressive indeed!
