This rare wonderful guitar is made for a player, its playability and sound are close to an L series but for an affordable price.

The two 1962 type pickups give an extremely beautiful sound and close to a vintage 1962 fender. The neck is very easy to play, according to the luthier it is not impossible that one of the previous owners wanted to make it thinner for better comfort. If this is the case it is a real success. The summary is that it is indeed a 1972 fender but with the playability and sound of a 1962. The original color has improved over time, giving it a "Butter Scotch" appearance reminiscent of the color of Keith Richards guitars... Its price is a bit steep, but ultimately not so steep, given its similarity to a 1962 vintage.

This guitar is extraordinary, we recommend you come and try The guitar can be played on request at Guitar's Cafe Rue de Bourg 11 in Lausanne Switzerland

Français sythése :

Les deux micros de type 1962 donnent un son extrêment beau et proche d'une fender vintage de 1962. Le neck est très facile à jouer, d'après le luthier il n'est pas impossible que l'un des anciens propriétaires aie voulu le rendre plus fin pour un meilleur confort. Si c'est le cas c'est une vraie réussite. La synthèse est qu'il s'agit bien d'une  fender de 1972 mais avec la jouabilité et le son d'une 1962. La couleur d'origine c'est bonifiée avec le temps en lui donnant c'est aspect " Butter Scotch " rappelant la couleur des guitares de Keith Richard... Son prix est à prioris assez cher mais au final

pas tellement vu la proximité qu'elle a avec une vintage de 1962. Cette guitare est extraordinaire, nous vous recommandons de venir l'essayer au Guitar's Café Switzerland.
