Kauffmann 56 S Paulownia Aged Blonde Light Aged

Kauffmann has elevated the art of building relic guitars and takes you back to the 1950s with this 56 S!

This Kauffmann is a tribute to the heritage of the S-model, a magical design that remains just as relevant today as when it first came out. While the combination of its blonde look with its cool black pickguard gives this guitar a unique appearance, the sought-after "played-in" feel, of which the Light Aged finish is one of the main reasons, truly sets it apart.

The guitar is exceptionally lightweight due to its Paulownia body, and thanks to the Gotoh bridge and tuners, it is also highly stable and reliable. This 56 S plays like butter with its C-shaped neck profile and 9.5-inch radius fretboard, and its sound, thanks to Kauffmann’s own Slightly Overwound single coils, is simply unparalleled and unmistakable!

These overwound pickups give you that extra bit of bite and warmth, making them perfect for genres like blues, rock, and even funk, where you want both clarity and a fuller tone. The guitar maintains its dynamic range, giving you control over the nuances of your playing—from soft cleans to crunch when you dig in harder.

Additionally, although the Paulownia body is lightweight, it still ensures optimal resonance, keeping the sound open and lively. All of this makes the Kauffmann's tone both versatile and distinctive, balancing a vintage vibe with modern power! It comes in a gig bag, with TFOA passport, and a specification sheet.
