Description
Pelham Blue has become one of the most sought-after finishes in the Ivison range, and this guitar illustrates why that’s the case. Finished in Ivison’s beautifully executed Heavy Aged treatment, this Dakota Standard looks and feels like a guitar that has spent decades making music, with authentic wear that perfectly complements the rich metallic blue finish.
At the heart of this guitar is a set of Ivison Freebird pickups, inspired by the clear, punchy and articulate tones of vintage Firebird pickups but taken to the next level by Ivison. Designed and wound specifically in house to complement the Dakota platform, they deliver exceptional note definition, sparkling cleans and a distinctive midrange voice that sits somewhere between a classic PAF and a single coil.
The combination of a lightweight mahogany body, one-piece mahogany neck and wraparound bridge creates a wonderfully resonant instrument that feels alive in the hands. Whether played clean or driven, the Dakota responds with the immediacy, sustain and resonance that have become hallmarks of Ivison Guitars.
Equal parts vintage-inspired and unmistakably individual, this Heavy Aged Dark Pelham Blue Dakota Standard is a striking example of one of the UK’s finest boutique guitars.
Supplied complete with Hiscox Liteflite hardcase and certificate of authenticity.
