Impossibly rare RICK TOONE S2 guitar. These are over $15k new folks and rarely come up for sale. This one is so cool it has been in my collection and I have to say NO guitar on this planet sounds better through my Axe-Fx or my Bogner than this. OH don’t be fooled…it also LOVES my 1961 Vox AC15 and my ’58 Twin Tweed. Why? How can 1 guitar play SO WELL with modern and vintage classics? Couple of things
First off, the custom made super thin aircraft grade aluminum neck RESONATES like an angry rollercoaster car. You feel string vibration like nothing you have ever experienced. All that string vibration gets translated to the pickups and the result is a very big alive sound that will never fart out.
Second, the multi-scale Fender to Gibson let’s low strings gain clarity and high strings can be bent with ease.
This is probably the easiest playing guitar (from ergonomics) you can ever wish for. I’ve been at this for decades. I’ve had the Kleins and Cantons and Delaps and Teuffels. Nothing compares. Sitting or standing you find yourself ONE with the instrument. You will find that things you practiced unsuccessfully suddenly can be done on this.
The guitar has been lovingly cared for. You can see all the specs and condition in the 3rd picture (I’m the ONLY dealer on earth to prepare such a detailed piece). The only thing of real note is that the prior owner had the guitar refinished. It used to have a light factory relic (the owner wanted unrelic’d).
