Tonal Character & Collector Value

The '55 Custom Shop reissue is famous for its punchy ash-body resonance balanced by the bright, glassy bell tones of hand-wound '55 single-coils. The Soft "V" neck fills the hand comfortably without feeling overly bulky, while the 9.5" radius allows for effortless string bending with zero choking.

As a Limited Edition Custom Shop run in iconic Fiesta Red, this instrument holds fantastic long-term value for both serious collectors and working musicians.
