Madguitarist78 Posted March 19, 2009 Share Posted March 19, 2009 What do you think are the pros and cons of each in your opinion??? Is the price difference justified?? BTW: are the frets on a '58 the same as a custom?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeRom Posted March 19, 2009 Share Posted March 19, 2009 Only difference is flame top .vs. plain top. Other than that I believe they are exactly the same. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cvansickle Posted March 20, 2009 Share Posted March 20, 2009 I believe the neck is a tad slimmer on the 59, but not as slim as the 60. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deepblue Posted March 20, 2009 Share Posted March 20, 2009 The con is in reality a REAL con. 2K for a piece of flame maple? But I love it, and dont regret buying a 59' for one second. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tim Plains Posted March 20, 2009 Share Posted March 20, 2009 Pros and cons? You're comparing the same guitar against itself. The R9 should also weigh a bit less but that's not always the case. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes but I was wondering because, it has been a very long time since I've played a 59..... I was thinking that maybe the bigger/taller jumbo frets would be harder to play faster solos on them as the problem with my standard, but it might be just the set-up out of wack..... (but it has a fairly low action) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
