Personal Thoughts:
Always a shop favourite—the '59 Reissues are timeless, and this Dirty Lemon example is especially sweet. It’s got that great mix of bite and bloom from the Custombuckers, and the neck profile is that perfect not-too-fat, not-too-slim sweet spot. Lovely burst with just a hint of vintage fade. Sounds like thunder, feels like home.
Condition Report:
Excellent condition. One or two very faint impressions if you really go looking, but overall incredibly clean. Frets are like new, no dings, no buckle rash. Case and COA included.
