The Session Custom 59 features a Seymour Duncan 59’ Humbucker in the neck and the sweet & spicy Godin ‘Custom Cajun’ single-coil pickup in the bridge for added vintage punch & bite. All of which are housed in a classic single cutaway body design with 5-ply pearloid & tortoise shell pickguards and controlled via a 5-way switch, 1x volume and 1x tone knob.
