RS Custom 64 Supreme Guitar

hoff • Fretted • June 18, 2013

Nashville’s Custom Red Special Guitars are handcrafted using the same designs used to build the ‘60s models they reproduce.
The 64 Supreme is built using custom- made Block board with Oak inserts layered to enclose the inner chambers of the guitar. It’s covered with select fine onepiece Mahogany Veneers, while the body is bound front and back with white binding.
The Classic Red finish changes colors in the light from a deep red to a washed out brown . The neck on the guitar is a short sale 24” with a zero fret and pearl inlay dots. The headstock is topped with locking tuners with pearl buttons. Each fret board is finished in a high gloss 2-part finish, with epoxied frets. Neck and body are joined at the 20th fret in a pocket that runs all the way to the bridge pickup where it is screwed in place with two wood screws and a single bolt running through the body, exposed on the back of the guitar.

The pickups are correct reproductions of the modified Burns Tri-Sonic Pickups from the original, made in the U.K. A 6-position pickup switch allows players to use one pickup or all three at the same time without each pickup having a phase reversal selector  " switch. The tremolo is a reproduction of the original design with motorcycle valve springs and its arm is made of brass and stainless steel. Limited lifetime warranty included. Custom colors and maple tops also available.
