2022 Palermo The Fifty Eight 1958 Explorer Destroyer Conversion Replica Aged Natural Korina
Weight: 7.4 lbs
Palermo are some killer, handmade guitars up in Canada. Or they were. I can’t remember if they are still in business or not.
Anyway, this one is really nice. The aging job is excellent and this was a well thought guitar with some great appointments.
It plays very well and lets face it, just plain looks killer.
The bridge pickup has been swapped with a Dimarzio Super Distortion and neck pickup with a Dimarzio Air Norton.
The original pickups are included as pictured.
Overall the guitar is in great, basically mint factory relic’d condition.
It comes with the pictured hard case which has a split on the bottom side, but functions perfectly fine. The only knock on Palermo I can think of is that they use kind of cheesy cases.
Otherwise this is a stellar guitar that will definitely have you standing out on stage or in your bedroom home studio as you make YouTube videos if that is your cup of tea:)
