1970s H.S. Anderson LP60 Les Paul Model Vintage Lawsuit Guitar Tobacco Sunburst w/ Seymour Duncan SH-4 & Case
1970s H.S. Anderson LP60 Les Paul Model Vintage Lawsuit Guitar Tobacco Sunburst w/ Seymour Duncan SH-4 & Case
Up for sale, a 1970s H.S. Anderson LP60 “Les Paul Model” in excellent condition and in perfect working order, complete with a hardshell case. The H.S. stands for Hidesato Shiino, christened the “Japanese Leo Fender,” a critical figure in the “lawsuit era” Japanese guitar world who would go on to start ESP and had involvement in brands including Greco and Fernandes. The H.S. Anderson brand is most associated with the Tele-style “Mad Cat" model HS-1 played extensively by Prince, with each instrument purportedly handmade by one of only three craftsmen.
A faithful recreation of the Les Paul Standard platform (with brazen “Les Paul” text on the headstock), tonewoods comprise a mahogany body, carved maple top, and a mahogany neck capped by a bound rosewood fingerboard. The original neck pickup meters at 8.6k ohms, delivering warm lows, smooth trebles, and a tailored midrange with plenty of presence and growl. The upgraded SH-4 JB bridge pickup is Seymour Duncan's original hot-rodded humbucker; the low end is full and powerful, the highs are crisp and detailed, and there’s an upper-midrange bump that adds crunch and chunk to heavy chords that translates to a singing, vocal-like quality when playing single notes or solos. Weighing 9lbs 2oz, this LP60 has been professionally setup here at Mike & Mike’s Guitar Bar with 10-46 strings, low action, and accurate intonation.
