Artist AT57 Champagne Sparkle Electric Guitar w/ HS Pickups
The Artist AT57 pairs the best elements of vintage guitar design with a host of modern appointments, including a blisteringly hot set of high-end pickups, giving this all-new model a slight edge when it comes to versatility compared to its older brother, the legendary Artist AT53. Equipped with the same classic-looking roasted quartersawn roasted maple neck as the AT53, we chose a mahogany body to maximise sustain on this hot-rodded road warrior!
Having tested untold amounts of pickup options, we settled on an HS configuration featuring a hot, high-end Alnico V single coil in the neck position, and an ultra high-output single-coil sized Alnico V humbucker in the bridge. Voiced with an aggressive mid-range punch and searing high-end, this pickup is perfectly suited for anything from classic rock breakup to bonecrushing modern metal riffage. If you're after that classic single-coil twang, simply flick the coil-split switch, and the AT57 will chickin' pick with the best of them.
Every detail has been pored over with this one - a bone nut, copper foil shielding, a wheeled string tree and locking strap buttons are among a host of features that make this your perfect modern instrument!
