Gordon Smith – Geist Deluxe Carbon

From Gordon Smith:

"The Geist Deluxe takes the Geist platform and brings the most popular bespoke customer choices into the stock range. When we launched the original Geist, it was all about lightweight modern playability, carved comfort, fast neck feel and that slightly hot rodded 80s vibes. Since then, customers have naturally started pushing the spec in a similar direction: HSH pickups, ebony boards and a more versatile control layout. So we’ve taken the hint. The result is the Geist Deluxe. The HSH setup gives you a huge spread of sounds: bridge humbucker for punch, neck humbucker for warmth and sustain, and a middle single coil for extra snap and clarity. Paired with the refined control layout, it gives you the tones players kept asking us for through the bespoke programme, but now straight from the stock range."
