Classic Series : "BAKERSFIELD" '62/69 DeLUXE II
If you're extra picky, you'll like the '62/69 DLX II.
(Especially as the pickguard comes standard on this one.)
Our Original CLASSIC Series Benchmark, the '62/69 model has been reinvented with new DeLUXE II features
including higher quality woods and components and a new proprietary SR (Smooth/Round) Neck Heel design.
The new '62/69 DeLUXE II features Figured Flame Maple on both Front and Back of guitar.
And some nicely figured Maple necks, too.
A new Mini-Toggle Coil-tap Switch in upper bout splits coils in the bridge Dual-Blade Humbucker,
bringing added versatility from screaming sustain to classic twang.
The Wide Open Range neck Humbucker rounds out the sonic palette, from warm jazz to Alcatraz.
Available in Maple and Rosewood fingerboards featuring double-line neck binding and Abalone dot inlays.
PTB Signature Retro Red Hot Dots side neck markers add a fun touch of cool vintage flare.
One-piece Figured Hard Maple necks feature matching Iced-Tea Sunburst headstocks with vintage-tinted Satin finish,
Full Scale (25.5") 22-fret Bound fingerboards and VR 18-1 Ratio Sealed White Pearloid tuners.
Some of the Super Flamey Backs on these things even seem to outdo the Fronts! I guess you could call that "Old School."
