Artist LP59TSB Deluxe Electric Guitar Vintage Sunburst

Artist LP59TSB Deluxe Electric Guitar Vintage Sunburst

The Artist LP59TSB guitar is top of the line, and whether it's for gigging or recording, this is definitely one of the best guitars on the market for the quality and price. This guitar has a classic rock and blues sound that easily produces that fat, fluid sound so typical of this style guitar.

The body consists of a 5A grade flame maple veneer top that is finished with a single-ply cream binding over a carved poplar cap and a back of solid African mahogany. The 22 fret neck is a comfortable ""C"" shape with trapezoid mother of pearl inlaid into the purple wood fretboard. With the typical 24.75"" scale length you are sure to bend notes as well as any blues or rock player going around.

The guitar is finished with an impressive Vintage Sunburst, while the back is a solid black polyurethane finish. The deluxe hardware consists of chrome locking tuners, lock-down-post Tune-O-Matic bridge with nickel saddles, and an aluminum Stop Tailpiece.

The Pickups we use on our LP59TSB are our signature Artist Bullbucker Pickups with Nickel Silver covers. The pickups on this model are COIL SPLITTING. They have a creamy smooth 'flute-like' sound on the neck pickup while the bridge pickup breaks up nicely with no harsh upper mids. They are both vintage-moderate output pickups. An added feature is that both pickups offer coil splitting which guarantees that this guitar will deliver a wide range of tonal options.

We also use the best electronic parts to reproduce the classic wiring configuration. 2 Volume and 2 Tone Control, standard 3-way toggle switch, Japanese Split Brass Shaft 500K Pots, 0.022uF,400V ceramic capacitors, and 1/4"" Input Jack.

The factory strings are standard D'Addario EXL110 strings.
