We call these the MODERN VINTAGE versions of the guitar. We went back to the basics doing our best to improve upon the classics from 58' and 59'. The nitro on this guitar is special because it features NO PLASTIC. The nitro checked immediately (intentional) and it looks like the extremely similar to the highly valued Gibsons from the past. This X-68 also features an extra No-Load push pull knob to give you complete control over each pickup. We also threw a White Mother of Pearl logo in there. Besides the exotic wood tops and body and necks, this guitar features some of the really awesome modern features of the other X-68's. Shoot us an email and let's setup a phone call to discuss this "Modern Vintage" models. These are new, but we cannot wait to see how they age even more.
