As part of the Crimson Guitars Spring Sale, for every £10.00 spent at https://www.crimsonguitars.com/ you will receive a FREE entry on Daily Guitar Draw for your chance to own this guitar. https://dailyguitardraw.com/product/crimson-custom-shop-s-type-in-vintage-sunburst-additional-entry-route-429/
This stunning S-Type guitar features a gorgeous Ash body and flamed maple neck decorated with mother-of-pearl inlays. The guitar features a solid Gotoh tailpiece and Gotoh locking tuners, but the real party piece is in the coils that ensure this thing properly sings. The guitar is loaded with Seymour Duncan Antiquity pickups with two Texas Hot’s and a Strat Custom at the bridge for as close to a 60’s Strat sound as you can possibly get without having to remortgage the house.
