Looking back to the guitars that started it all in 1974, the GS2 Heritage is a modern recreation of a classic Gordon Smith guitar. These are the guitars that powered Punk, were used and abused by British Rock, thrashed by Grunge and were the cornerstone of Indie. Each guitar is made from a 44m thick single-piece Brazilian Cedar body and single-piece set neck featuring the unique Gordon Smith tone pocket.
Gordon Smith pioneered the coil-split humbucker in the 1970s and the design combines with our unique GS tone circuit to make these deceptively simple guitars super flexible. Each homewound Gordon Smith P90 fitted on the Heritage models is wound on the same machine as the 1974 originals.
Every Heritage guitar is hand-built by a team of highly skilled luthiers using individually selected tone woods at our workshop in the heart of England.
This guitar is hand finished in traditional Tobacco Burst.
