Semi-acoustic tone in a double-cutaway compact design. Design and concept by Trev Wilkinson. “This modern-take on a retro flavour is lightweight to play, but a heavyweight when it comes to tone."
The Maranello '61's two high-output humbuckers combine with super 5-way switching to give you all the classic sounds and more. And there's a Vintage Vibrato onboard for all you wobblers, tremblers and dive-bombers out there.
