Vinetto Artifact
"Vince Cunetto has just announced an aproximately 4 month ceative hiatus during which time he will not be accepting any new orders or building guitars. The Vinetto Artifact SC and DC guitars are among the most respected Tele and Strat style guitars on the market, built and aged by the man who started the whole pre-distressed look via the Cunetto Era Relic Fender Custom Shop guitars. At this point it is unclear whether the SC and DC models will still be on offer when Vince returns to building. I get the impresion that, from an artistic perspective, Vince feels like he is sort of like a photographer who has been taking the same photo every day for nearly 20 years and would like to find some new and innovatibve subject matter. We've discussed some of the ideas he has and I think when he starts building again we will have some amazing new produscts to offer. Stay Tuned........."

Features of the The Artifact™
- Authentic body shapes, contours, woods, hardware styles and other appointments as inspired by the classic Fullerton, California styles of the 1950's and 60's. All bodies and necks are made from our own stock of woods to our exact specs. Body tonewoods are specially selected and graded for weight and tonality, and made using our proprietary and thoroughly researched plans and dimensions, assuring the best and most accurate shapes available today. Unlike many vintage pieces with less than ideal tolerances, all neck pockets and necks are precision machined for a tight fit neck/body fit to maximize vibrational unity thoughout the entire guitar.
- Period-correct neck shape profiles and constructions featuring a modernized 9.5" fingerboard radius for easier string bending and improved playability. Built to our own exclusive specifications and shapes, all necks utilize 100% quartersawn eastern hard maple neck blanks for stability and feature the exclusive Vinetto peghead profile and vintage-style tuners.
- Extremely thin nitrocellulose lacquer finish, available in a variety of vintage colors. These are the same vintage colors and formulas we've been using for other guitars since the 90's.
- Selected vintage-style pickups wound to exacting specs from todays' best boutique winders, including Jason Lollar, Lindy Fralin and others.
- Each guitar is individually and artistically aged and cosmetically distressed by Vince Cunetto. Vince's experience and attention to detail assures that each guitar is painstakingly crafted for ultimate tone and playability with unmatched authenticity in aged vintage look and feel.

SN. 0209 Weight: 6 Pounds (One piece Body) Condition: Mint From Vince Cunetto's Website"In the mid-fifties, it was time for a change. From black to white pickguards, butterscotch to blond finishes and from flat-pole to staggered pole piece pickups. Yeah, there were a few more things too, like a sweet V to C shape neck. And they're all here in the SC 56 WG." Specifications:
