Short Classic

[BFC]

After spending two years on a Short Classic, I think these things are absolutely awesome. Love the shorter scale length in a traditional S type package. Now that I'm really familiar with the Short Classic, I've decided it's time for a little update on the specs. Practically the same guitar, I'm just doing some ultra fine tuning on the specs and going in a little more traditional direction.

Here's the current guitar...

Model - Short Classic
Body Finish - Burgundy Mist
Body Wood - Alder
Neck Wood - Maple, Pau Ferro Fingerboard
Neck Finish - Satin Finish, Tinted Back
Nutwidth - 1 11/16-inch
Frets - Low-Rise
Back Shape - Happy Medium +.030
Hardware - Chrome
Bridge - Vintage Tremolo
Pickguard - Mint White
Pickups - SC1 SC1 H2+
Switching - 5-Way Add Bridge with Splitter + VA Booster
Strings - .010-.046 Elixir Strings

And the new one on order...

Model - Short Classic
Body Finish - Burgundy Mist
Body Wood - Alder
Neck Wood - Maple, Rosewood Fingerboard
Neck Finish - Satin Finish, Tinted Back
Nutwidth - 1 5/8-inch
Frets - Low-Rise
Back Shape - 60's Vibe
Hardware - Chrome
Bridge - Vintage Tremolo
Pickguard - Mint White
Pickups - VA7R VA7 HF1+
Switching - 5-Way Add Bridge with Splitter + VA Booster
Strings - .010-.046 Elixir Strings

Should be really fun comparing these two! The current guitar is very close to perfect for me. The new one should be even closer.

Same exact color?

[BFC]

Yes, same color. This is a replacement so to speak. Just never bonded with the happy medium neck. So the current one will be moving on to a new home eventually.

Current guitar. Which won't look all that much different from the new one when it arrives. :D
