Description
The Silvertone 1303 MKII is a solid-body electric guitar that builds on a Silvertone design lineage dating back to 1954 with the 1303 emerging in 1958. This reissue retains the vibe and twang of the original while introducing significant upgrades for the modern player. A thru-body adjustable bridge provides great attack and hefty tone while offering modern adjustment options combining classic character with practical control over the guitars setup. Its a quirky classic with modern reliability. The mahogany neck features a modern C-shaped profile while a newly engineered neck joint system is designed to support longer sustaining notes. A rosewood fingerboard with pearl dot inlays 12-inch radius and nickel silver frets completes the playing surface. Lipstick single-coil pickups deliver the distinctive character of the design supported by two stacked Volume and two Tone controls plus a three-way toggle switch. Together these features preserve the established 1303 identity while adding thoughtful updates.
