Branson SSS Sunburst S-Type Classic Solid Body

Description

Presented here is Greg Branson's BS-SSS classic maple neck Strat with cherry sunburst finish, vintage "bent saddle" tremolo and 22 fret maple capped neck. Fender used necks with a separate maple fingerboard and no skunk stripe only for a couple of years in the 60's, mostly in '67 and '68. These necks do have a different tone (famously preferred by Hendrix). So Greg Branson has essentially put together the sought after late 60's maple capped neck with a modern flatter fingerboard radius for speed and clean bending, medium jumbo frets and he's added that handy extra 22nd fret. After too many years designing instruments for some of the top companies in the business, Greg Branson is now putting his own name on his work, with the goal of producing guitars that are absolutely professional level instruments but are still very reasonably priced. In the Branson collection you will find only quality instruments. Each one will come to you professionally set up and ready to play. Branson BST-SSS Features: • Outstanding fit and finish • Classic S-type with cherry sunburst finish on alder body • Full 22 fret maple capped neck with modified slim 60's profile • Medium jumbo frets and modern 12" radius fingerboard • Chrome hardware and three Wilkinson single coil pickups • Vintage style bent saddle tremolo • Pro quality padded gig bag included at no charge "I received the Branson guitar today and it is excellent. I was impressed with the quality and craftsmanship. This guitar is by far better than many in the high end category. I don't know how you are providing such a great price point. It is a player and will be one of my main "go to" guitars. "
