"Paloma" the '59 S-Type

'59-Inspired Elegance with a Texas Heartbeat

“Paloma” is a '59-inspired S-Type built with tone, feel, and vintage flair in mind. From its beautifully aged three-tone sunburst nitro finish to its perfectly shaped neck and hand-wound pickups, this guitar brings together timeless aesthetics and outstanding playability.

The body is crafted from lightweight ash, offering natural resonance and balance, while the medium C-profile maple neck with a dark rosewood slab fingerboard, clay dot markers, and rounded edges delivers a comfortable, broken-in feel. With Jescar FW58118 jumbo frets and a vintage-correct 7.25" radius, Paloma plays like a well-worn favourite right out of the case.

 

Vintage Style, Modern Stability

  • Callaham enhanced vintage vibrato with steel block and bent steel saddles provides smooth action, stable tuning, and a trem arm that stays put—no wobble or drift.

  • Double-line Kluson tuners keep things vintage-correct and reliable.

  • Aged plastics, full-sized aluminium shielding, and a mint green pickguard complete the classic S-Type aesthetic.

 

Timeless '59 Tone – With a Twist

At the heart of Paloma is our hand-wound “Timeless '59” Strat pickup set, wound with vintage-correct Heavy Formvar wire for sparkling highs and rich mids. We've added a steel baseplate to the bridge pickup for extra presence and punch—ideal for cutting through the mix while retaining authentic single-coil chime.
