S Models
With its instantaneously recognizable body shape, extremely stable tremolo, and three single coil pickups, our S Model guitars are not only classic but versatile as well. While paying homage to the near perfect original design, we incorporated a few changes to update both playability and sound. We have added a higher output bridge pickup and a much needed tone control. Together, these modifications provide enhanced flexibility and overall balance.
S57
As far as we are concerned, the S57 is the definitive iteration of this ubiquitous body style. A hand selected ash body, one piece maple neck, and 1-ply White pickguard give a timeless appearance. While Two Tone Sunburst is traditional, the S57 is available in any standard finishes we offer.
Available Dealer Upgrades:
- Left handed
- Hardtail (non-tremolo) bridge
- Paint over paint finish
- Gold Anodized pickguard
S63
Our S63 introduces the vast palette of colors from the heyday of the 1960's car culture. Alder bodies and rosewood necks are standard, though ash and maple may also be used. 3-ply pickguards in White, Mint, Tortoise, Black and Pearl add to the wide variety of looks of our most popular S Model.
The S63 is available in all our standard colors.
Available Dealer Upgrades:
- Left handed
- Hardtail (non-tremolo) bridge
- Paint over paint finish
- Matching headstock
- Gold Anodized pickguard
S67
Our S67 is available with all the same specs and choices of the S63, but features the larger CBS era headstock.
Available Dealer Upgrades:
- Left handed
- Hardtail (non-tremolo) bridge
- Paint over paint finish
- Matching headstock
- Gold Anodized pickguard
S68HX
In an homage to the great Jimi Hendrix who famously took a right handed guitar and played it left handed, we have taken our S67 with a left handed body and neck, and configured it for the right handed player.
While black or white with a maple neck are the most traditional choices, the S68HX can be ordered with a rosewood neck in any of the standard finishes we offer.
The S68HX is only available with a CBS headstock and a tremolo bridge.
S81
Here by popular demand, our S81 features a double-locking tremolo system, a thinner and flatter (12" radius) 22 fret neck, headstock adjust truss rod, and several pickup combinations including the ever popular HSH configuration. The wiring features a 500k volume pot and push/pull coil tapping for increased volume and dynamic range in conjunction with the humbuckers.
Available with either black or chrome hardware, and comes standard with strap locks.
Available in HSH, SSH, and HXH pickup configurations
The S81 pictured here in "Orange Sunshine" is available in all standard finishes we offer including the custom colors (specially designed for this model) "Grape", "Orange Sunshine", "Yellow Taxi", "Hot Pink", and "Limey".
