Description
Simply an amazing burst! Honestly as good as anything out there! Blown away by this build.
The Springer Seraph 59 VNS embodies the pinnacle of French luthiery — a masterclass in tone, aesthetics, and craftsmanship. Hand-built by Mikaël Springer, the Seraph pays homage to the golden era of late-’50s single-cut design while transcending it through meticulous detail and modern refinement.
Its select carved maple top and lightweight Spanish cedar body deliver a resonant, harmonically rich voice with exceptional sustain and balance. The Vintage Natural Satin finish (VNS) showcases the wood’s natural beauty with understated elegance, subtly aged to evoke the feel of a well-loved classic.
The hand-carved Spanish cedar neck, joined seamlessly to the body with precision, features an ideal late-’50s profile that fills the hand comfortably — substantial yet responsive. Paired with a bound rosewood fingerboard and rolled edges, every note feels organic and effortless.
Electronics are voiced for nuance and touch sensitivity: a pair of custom-wound Sunbear 58 Archive humbuckers capture the soul of vintage PAFs with crystalline articulation and dynamic warmth. Whether clean or driven, the Seraph 59 VNS delivers a commanding, three-dimensional tone that responds beautifully to the player’s intent.
Every detail — from the aged nickel hardware to the nitrocellulose finish and hand-cut bone nut — reflects a builder obsessed with perfection. The result is a timeless instrument that merges vintage soul with boutique precision.
The Springer Seraph 59 VNS is not merely a guitar — it’s a piece of art for the discerning player who values tone, tradition, and the unmistakable feel of something truly handmade.
