Kauffmann / '59 SC Custom / Guitar

Custom inspired From the Kauffmann Authentic Series. Single cut guitar, mahagony body, maple top, two humbuckers. Brutally yet delecately aged to a vintage feel, look and sound. Two Lollar Imperial Humbuckers combined with Kauffmann's wiring create heaps of overtone that will inspire you for years. 1957 marks the birth of the Black Beauty and that inspired the looks of this singe cut. The jet-black lustre of the hourglass body. The shimmer of 24-karat hardware. And of course the Custom’s seven-ply-bound body and headstock. We aged it gently, so it the thin nitro finish has crackle and some small dents. We build it light, the guitar weighs 3720 grams. And we equipped it with two Lollar Imperial Humbuckers. Body-type: Solid-body Merk: Kauffmann Model: Single cut SPECIFICATIONS Body Mahogany with maple cap and 7-ply white binding Finish Aged nitro cellulose lacker Neck Mahagony Neck profile 59’s C profile Neck radius 12″ Neck finish Aged nitro cellulose lacker Fingerboard Rosewood with cream binding Neck-body construction Long tenon glued in Tuners Gotoh SD 90 Vintage Electronics CTS pots with treblebleed circuit Bridge Tune-O-Matic Pickups Lollar Imperial Humbuckers Case Deluxe Gigbag   Sheptone Tribute Series Humbuckers The Tribute set uses rough finished Alnico 5 (degaussed) magnets, using 57-58 spec 42 Enamel. Resistance may vary from set to set since my winding process goes strictly by the number of turns of wire. Although the originals were never installed in certain positions based on their resistance, this has proven to me be the range of the best sounding pickups in those positions. Tributes come standard with Gibson “Patent Applied For” 49.2mm pole spacing.Sheptone Tributes were carefully designed for the BEST sound through extensive research, winding/re-winding, and comparison testing… These pickups produce the same beautiful sound as original “Patent Applied For” pickups at a fraction of the price. When in doubt, the Tribute set is the best choice for all around “Patent Applied For” performance for a wide variety of music.
