Gordon Smith GS1 Heritage Tobacco Sunburst - Handmade in the UK

With a thick, double cutaway solid body, made of richly grained Mahogany, the guitar has a satisfying weight and balance, and great resonance. The neck, just as the body, is hand carved for immediate comfort, and features a thick profile. The Rosewood fingerboard is inlaid with dot markers, and the fretwork is simply superb, with a smooth polished feel when performing bends. A unique feature for Gordon Smith Guitars is they feature Hand Cut Brass Nuts. These are not only tough, but offer great tonal benefits, increasing brightness and sustain.

Single Humbucker Pickup with Coil Tap

The GS1 Heritage features a single Gordon Smith Bridge Humbucker Pickup. Wound in-house they have been a feature of Gordon Smith guitars for decades, offering rich crunch, chiming cleans to soaring lead sounds, and these have also been improved with even better quality components and magnet materials. The GS1 Heritage features simple but effective electronics, with a single volume control which doubles as a Push Pull coil tap, and a tone control for taming the highs, and mellowing the tone. The GS1 Heritage is finished in classic Tobacco Sunburst, with gloss top and headstock, but the rear of the guitar and neck is finished with a brown satin, for a slick and silky smooth playing feel. The wraparound bridge bar features adjustable screws, which makes tweaking the intonation easy.

The guitar also comes complete in a Gordon Smith Hard Case, with full certification.
