Produced for Montgomery Ward’s Airline brand by Kay, this Bighorn has been thoroughly hot-rodded by the team at Ronin guitars, the now-defunct Eureka, CA-based boutique builders known for top-notch craftsmanship during their 14-year run. Revamped for modern playability and versatility, this Bighorn features a pair of Ronin’s Foilbucker pickups, a new wiring harness with Bourns pots, and Kluson Deluxe tuning machines and an ABR-1 bridge, refretted with medium jumbo fretwire.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nAt the heart of this guitar are the pair of Ronin’s oversized Foilbucker pickups: as the name would suggest, these pickups are designed to combine the clarity and sweetness of a Gold Foil with the warmth and openness of the best humbucker designs, smooth and punchy at the bridge and exceptionally broad at the neck. In addition to the three-way pickup selector, a smaller switch beneath the neck pickup toggles the neck humbucker’s coils between tapped, series, and parallel wiring configurations. This Bighorn is featherweight at 5lbs 8oz, professionally setup here at Mike \u0026amp; Mike’s Guitar Bar with 10-46 strings, low action, and accurate intonation.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nNeck Specs:\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n-Wood: Maple\u003cbr\u003e\n-Shape: Soft V, measuring .910” 1st fret, .935” 12th fret\u003cbr\u003e\n-Fretboard: Brazilian rosewood, 12” radius, large dot inlay\u003cbr\u003e\n-Frets: Medium jumbo, refret, no wear\u003cbr\u003e\n-Scale Length: 25 1\/2”\u003cbr\u003e\n-Nut: 1.650” (42mm)\u003cbr\u003e\n-Tuners: Kluson Deluxe double-line\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nBody Specs:\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n-Material: Wood\u003cbr\u003e\n-Pickups: Ronin Foilbucker x2\u003cbr\u003e\n-Controls: Volume, Tone, Neck Coil Tap\/Series\/Parallel switch, Three-way pickup selector\u003cbr\u003e\n-Harness: Bourns pots and tone caps\u003cbr\u003e\n-Hardware: No-wire ABR-1-style bridge and covered tailpiece\u003cbr\u003e\n-Plastics: Three-ply pickguard and “teacup” knobs (replacement)\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nThe Sunburst finish shows light playwear consistent with decades of careful use prior to the Ronin mods.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nA gigbag is included.","brand":"Airline","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48178473566464,"sku":"ISI944864","price":1999.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0550\/4437\/4714\/files\/medium_dc18c038-bd4f-45ee-a9bb-ea526a9679d3.jpg?v=1773776019","url":"https:\/\/mmguitarbar.com\/products\/1960s-airline-bighorn-vintage-guitar-ronin-modded-w-foilbuckers-kay-made-1","provider":"Mike \u0026 Mike's Guitar Bar","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
