Frequently Asked Questions
The 61s have a slightly more aggressive edge and higher output, offering a more modern vintage tone than the warmer, more rounded '57 Classics.
The '60s slim taper neck is generally considered comfortable, though it's not as wide as some vintage Les Pauls, making it accessible for a wider range of hand sizes.
The finish is nitrocellulose lacquer, so it will age gracefully with playing, developing a subtle patina over time. It's best protected with regular polishing.
