TONE TEAM

2020 ToneTeam 54 tribute Prototype - Handmade by Rufini Guitars

This gorgeous instrument is the one that started the whole idea of the "ToneTeam" guitars, when Italian Luthier Matteo Rufini fell in love with a gorgeous 1954 Stratocaster that has a incredible maple neck, both figured and flamed.

We will build only very few of these, and exclusively from January to December 2020. This is not a "quantity" project, nor a competition with the Historical American brand which we love. This is a tribute project with the intention to deliver the most faithful - both tonally and visually - recreation of some unique guitars built in the golden era of American Guitars.

This particular example has been made with a super thin lacquer, matched in colors and specifications to the original, from the unique body and neck "rounded" contours to the incredible flamed and figured maple neck.

The pickups have been recreated by Luthier Luigi Valenti to exact '54 specs, directly measured from the original.
