Sunset ‘79

The Sunset '79 epitomizes the late 70s/early 80s southern California hard rock scene with tone & playability that only Grosh can deliver. With a one piece maple neck, dual Grosh humbuckers mounted directly to the body, & rear-routed electronics, the '79 is aggressive & focused. The Grosh-original body design lends a look & sonic signature that is familiar yet all its own. The default neck is a new modified "D" back shape developed specifically for this guitar by Don Grosh. Finally, this is the first Grosh to be designed from the ground up with a Floyd Rose tremolo. Everything about this guitar screams "ROCK", but it doesn't end there ... roll back the volume to get some of the most amazingly soulful jazz, blues and funk tones. Featuring master-grade, tone-tapped woods, ultra-thin nitro-lacquer finish and handcrafted Grosh pickups.
