The Alborosie guitar was a dream in my head until recently when I finally decided to make it real! Alborosie is an artist that I respect because he has built his fantastic musical style, over the years he has been loved by many people as a true artist, an excellence. I got to know him better when I started collaborating with his guitarist, Valter Vincenti, another great artist whose talents I admire as a musician. To make the Alborosie guitar I created an original shape starting from the legendary Les Paul by Bob Marley, a true myth of my youth! I made this instrument by creating substantial differences, not all of which are visible to the eye. The differences I am talking about are in the woods, in the shape of the headstock, in the slightly retouched body and in the pickups (alnico 2 at the neck and alnico 5 at the bridge) which are built from my recipe, the best I have ever invented. For the wood I have chosen a type of African mahogany, Oukume ', which is water repellent and a really light weightt. It is no coincidence that it is used for boating. The resonance of this wood has amazed me over time, I have built various guitars with this wood and every time a fantastic instrument has come out, with a sound between traditional mahogany (Sapele or Honduras) and Alder. My pickups paired with this wood have fantastic response, great sustain and a strong sound. Combined with the maple of the neck and the rosewood of the fingerboard (with a 25.5 “and 16” radius scale) the sound is enriched with harmonics and becomes warm and defined. The pickups are built with a less resistive wire to raise the merit factor, the result is even more definition and a very well focused tone. As hardware we have chosen the best in circulation; from the Grover mechanics to the Gotoh bridge, nothing is left to chance. The paint is nitro, which helps the resonance of the wood. We decided to include in the package together with the guitar also a beautiful Italian-made case of excellent workmanship, a shoulder strap also handcrafted in Italy by a well-known Italian brand, Magrabo, to make the instrument even more complete. You'll hear it soon, then you'll understand why I'm so proud of it. We are honored to have received the ok from Alborosie for the quality and merits of the guitar.
