2012 Yanuziello Viceroy Lefty
The left-handed Viceroy offered here features a hollowed mahogany body, a heavily figured maple top with stunning sunburst finish, rosewood fingerboard and knobs, and tortoise-celluloid appointments throughout. Joe custom machines and nickel-plates his own hardware and his single-coil pickups are custom wound by Lindy Frailin in the style of those late-50’s DeArmonds that make Harmony Stratotones sound as good as they do.
Overall, the guitar offers a dreamy lefty playing experience. The instrument is feather-weight (5lbs 11oz) and highly resonant. With a first fret depth of 0.875", twelfth fret depth of 0.98," a 1-5/8" nut width, and a round carve, the neck is a hybrid between '50s Gibson and Fender neck profiles.
In near-mint condition, the instrument shows only light playwear to its frets and minor arm-wear to the top's finish. A custom tortoise celluloid output jack plate was made in our shop to correct minor impact damage at the jack. Beautifully set-up in our shop, the guitar is simply a delight to play.
With original custom hardshell case.
