Description
Briggs Guitars are created in a workshop in North Carolina by the skill of owner and builder Jack Briggs. The guitars are completely handmade using the best materials and take a lot of time and effort, and have established themselves as a high-end guitar brand that captivates many guitarists with their high sound quality that is completely unprofitable.
The ReserveStockProgram series is the highest grade among Briggs Guitars. Because the materials are extremely rare and a huge amount of time is required, only 2 to 3 pieces are produced each year. All of the wood actually used is the world's best, rare and carefully selected wood that cannot even be obtained from other brands, and it is of course different from regular products, and even compared to original vintage guitars. It is the ultimate form of electric guitar that will make you feel that it has surpassed the standard.
What we would like to introduce to you this time is the fourth product from the earliest period, which makes us feel that it is special among the ReserveStockProgram series, which is at the pinnacle of the series. This is a perfect piece that has nothing to complain about, as it has the ultimate sound and looks using incredibly rare vintage materials, and is in near-mint condition, completely ignoring the age of 18 years.
First of all, the specifications that can be said to be the ultimate are the original style double cutaway shape, all materials used are aged materials that have been stored in an AirDried dry storage, and the body top is made of 1955 flamed red maple. This is a top-quality material that is completely different from other brands.The figure itself has a very strong depth, has a 3D dancing glare, and the heathered grain of the vertical lines has an exotic texture. The material is used in 1P, which is the ultimate in luxury. The B1BurstFinish 59HoneyBurst color, which is a custom color that matches this finest material, is also used for the finish, giving it a very cool look that is reminiscent of the faded green burst style of the 1959 Burst. Next, the body back and neck are made of Honduran mahogany from 1931, which is nearly a century old, and is used for each piece, but since it is a material that is much older than the pre-war period, it has a unique heathered grain that makes it feel authentic. In addition, it is no exaggeration to say that the sweet, thick, and glossy acoustic characteristics are a miracle that can only be achieved with vintage materials. Finally, the fingerboard is made of Brazilian rosewood made in 1960, a premium wood that was felled in the same year as the original Burst, and has a very deep black contrast and a unique heathered grain that is intensely undulating. It is a truly wonderful material. All of these materials are extremely rare vintage materials that are difficult to obtain from other brands. Other features include Jacaranda's wood pickguard back panel, cream-colored body top, fingerboard side, and head binding made of ABS resin, head veneer made of rare Madagascan ebony, fingerboard inlay made of MotherOfPearl trapizoid, and Chunky shape inspired by the original Burst shape. 0.90 -0.97, medium jumbo stainless steel frets, unbleached bone nut, ToneProsSystem Tune-O-Matic bridge LightWeight tailpiece.Currently replaced with Kluson, original included. Also, from mid-2006, the ReserveStockProgram will have the RSP limited serial number written on the back of the head, but only the earliest products manufactured in 2005 and 2006 will have the ReserveStock & limited serial number written. In addition, the regular serial number is also 6 digits for 2000 and 2002, 5 digits for 2003 and 2005, and 4 digits after 2006, but this is a 5 digit serial, and is the earliest number of the ReserveStockProgram series. This is an extremely rare temporary edition that only exists in books.
As for the sound, you can experience the amazing vintage sound that will give you goosebumps all over your body the moment you play it. Equipped with '59 Pretenders humbucker 2 made by JMRolph, which is highly acclaimed worldwide as a vintage sound PU, and picks up the full potential of the best wood materials. If I had to describe the sound in one word, it would be best to describe it as foul-class.The thick rumble from the real maho body neck has a thick, sticky and chewy tone in the low mids, and the solid maple top has a solid contour that can withstand high gain. It has a sparkling high range and a deep withered nuance due to Jacaranda, and although there are Les Paul models from other brands with similar specifications, it makes you wonder if they can be made this much better by changing them to vintage materials. Masu. In addition, the output balance is exquisite, and it reproduces delicate picking nuances, responds quickly, and has the high quality typical of a high-end brand.It is a top-notch product that completely stands out from the rest as it supports a wide range of sounds from clean to crunch to overdrive sounds. It is a book. Also, since the previous owner's original tone capacitor was an inexpensive ceramic capacitor, he upgraded it to THEBEEMOD made by NUEDEVICE, leaving a strong bite in the high range, mid-low range that doesn't get thin when driving, and thickness. It achieves a clear and clear sound. At that time, Tone Pot 2, which had some scratches, was replaced with the same one made by CTS.
Finally, as for the condition, although 17 to 18 years have passed since this one was produced in 2005 and 2006, it is in excellent condition and does not show that at all. If you look carefully, you can see scratches on the pickguard, scuffs, and very shallow dents on the back of the body, but there is no other noticeable damage, and considering the model year, it is in excellent condition and can be called near mint. In terms of playing, the neck condition is good and there is plenty of room for the truss rod. An original hard case is included as accessories, and an original bridge tailpiece is also included.
As for the market price of the RSP series, even a piece with some signs of use in recent years and a piece with fallen wood material is sold at a price approaching 2 million yen, and this one, the earliest product of the fourth production, is excessive Considering the plus points of period rare specs, ultimate wood material, and near mint condition, no matter how cheap you look at it, it probably won't be less than 2 million yen, but thanks to the great kindness of the previous owner, We are now offering this product at a special price that is truly unbeatable. This is the ultimate item that you will never come across even if you look for it in the future, so if you are interested, please don't miss out on this once-in-a-lifetime chance.
