Full Description
View Full DescriptionSlash's signature tone
Custom Burstbucker Alnico 2 humbuckers are voiced to capture the punch, warmth, and clarity that define Slash’s sound. Clean passages stay open and articulate, then push an amp and you get that singing sustain with a confident midrange growl. Hand-wired electronics with Orange Drop capacitors give a smooth, usable sweep, so you can ride the guitar’s controls and shape your drive without losing definition. It’s a versatile, musical setup that feels instantly familiar under the fingers.
Flame maple top and finish
A solid mahogany body anchors the classic Les Paul resonance, while a AAA flamed maple cap brings snap, focus, and serious stage appeal. Finished in Appetite Amber gloss nitro, the figuring pops under lights and looks every bit as bold as the riffs it inspires. The nitrocellulose lacquer lets the guitar breathe and age gracefully, developing character over time as you rack up gigs and studio sessions.
50s feel and playability
The 50s Vintage neck profile has that reassuring handful that encourages confident rhythm work and expressive lead lines. A rosewood fingerboard with a 12" radius and 22 medium jumbo frets keeps bends smooth and intonation solid across the neck. It’s an effortless player: chords ring with authority, single notes glide, and the overall feel invites dynamic picking and wide vibrato without fighting back. You just plug in and get on with making noise.
Tour-ready hardware and case
An ABR-1 Tune-O-Matic and aluminium Stop Bar deliver rock-solid tuning and sustain, with Vintage Keystone tuners offering precise, familiar feel. Grover/Schaller strap locks keep things secure onstage, while the cream plastics and uninstalled pickguard nail the classic look. You also get Slash-approved Ernie Ball strings, four Slash Tortex picks, a signature truss rod cover, and a vintage-style brown hardshell case, so it’s ready to travel from rehearsal to headline.
