Originally offered in 1963, the Silvertone1478 was an instant favorite. The offset double cutaway body is made ofsolid Mahogany with a maple top, for a deep rich tone with top endbite. The genuine Bigsby tremolo and adjustable steel bridge meanfaultless intonation and better string attack " an improvement over therosewood bridge and antiquated tremolo system on the original. We alsopaid special attention to the neck profile, improving it with a modernC-shape, as well as coupling it to the body with a newly engineered neckjoint system for longer sustaining notes. This reissue is the realdeal.
