TONE TEAM

2020 ToneTeam 65 Tribute maple cap Prototype - Handmade by Burini Guitars

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 is the recreation of a original and rare guitar, a early 1965 "maple cap" strat with amazing flame maple neck and gorgeous Candy Apple Red finish, same model as used by the great Jimi Hendrix, who painted his one and smashed it at the Saville theatre. This amazing guitar has been made with a super thin, vintage correct lacquer, matched in colors and specifications to the original, from the unique body and neck contours to the incredible flamed maple neck.

The pickups have been recreated by Luthier Luigi Valenti to exact '65 specs, directly measured from the original.   

Do you have a vintage guitar left in the dust? What are you waiting for?
