Paoletti guitars full of history and rich family heritage. Maybe it's the reclaimed Chestnut wood, maybe it's the years of being a luthier and amp tech. It's probably both. Either way each guitar is built to perfection. This Stratospheric is a representation of just that. The carefully selected chestnut from 130+ year old wine barrels adds responsiveness and resonance to this body, helping every note ring out longer and brighter. There is something special about the neck carve on Paoletti guitars. They call it a medium C and it is on the thicker side of medium, but extremely comfortable. The smooth satin finish allows for easy playing up and down the fingerboard. The Loaded with Paoletti's own 60's style pickups you'll be getting all your favorite S type tones. But don't worry they aren't too vintage, you can still get some nice bite from the bridge position into a driven amp.
Paoletti guitars are built for touring musicians and are ready for the stage or the home studio.
