“Coralina” is that magical early ‘50s combination of ash and maple - with all the hollow, funky brightness that that suggests, but with an underlying warmth and broadness to the tone that may surprise. A heavily aged Fiesta Red finish with Gold hardware is a stone-cold classic as is the wonderful aesthetic and feel of the neck - it feels broken in and immediately comfy but with the addition of jumbo frets for an enhanced vintage feel, it’s accurate and a breeze to play - the perfect combination.
The hardware is all Gold finish: Kluson split-post tuners and a Gotoh vintage repro vibrato bridge with steel block and bent saddles for THAT tone.
Our “Timeless ’54” pickups are a perfect match and wired through our usual top-notch, highest quality CTS, Switchcraft and CRL electronic components (there’s even a repro “Phone Book” paper in oil cap) for decades of hassle free use.
