Overview
The M-Series is the mid range Series of Belforti's line up. These instruments represent the entry in the world of fine lutherie, with decorative tops, high performance woods and electronics, in a form factor that represents modern lutherie. They are a continuity of the E-Series design, and bridge the gap between E & S-Series.
As a part of this Series, this instrument features the following :
Master Grade Tonewoods
The Master-grade woods that are known for their stunning visual appeal as well as their tonal excellence. These aren't just any pieces of timber; they are carefully selected for their aesthetic beauty, tonal richness, and resonance.
All the Master Grade woods are rated between 81 and 90 on the Belforti rating.
Faux Pickguard Aesthetics
The faux pickguard gives the M-Series their distinctive look. It maintains this classic look and brings coherence to the design, while preserving the grain pattern. It is made out of inlayed ebony.
We could never put a piece of plastic on these, not even transparent acrylic !
Matching Premium Inlays
M-Series fretboard and headstock inlays are exclusively made out of the top wood you chose. They are extracted from the scraps of your top, and they are outline with a black inlayed ebony outline.

Woods
Woods
Body : Roasted Flamed Alder Wings & Red Alder ToneBlock
Roasted Alder benefits from heat treatment, improving its structural stability and moisture resistance. The process darkens its color naturally while slightly reducing weight. Roasted Alder has a very uniform response to vibration, with quicker resonance and enhanced durability, making it ideal for stable instruments in variable climates.
Alder is a lightweight, closed-grain hardwood known for its uniform density and stability. Its relatively soft texture makes it easy to machine and finish. Alder vibrates evenly across its surface, producing a balanced energy response. It is a standard choice for electric guitars due to its consistency and reliability.
Neck : Roasted Flamed Maple
Roasted Maple undergoes a heat-treatment process that reduces moisture content, increasing dimensional stability and resistance to environmental changes. It’s lighter than regular maple, with improved stiffness and a rich caramel color. Its reduced internal stress makes it highly resistant to warping, ideal for touring instruments or varying climates.
Fretboard : Roasted Flamed Maple
Roasted Flamed Maple combines the dramatic visual appeal of flame figuring with the structural benefits of thermal treatment. It offers excellent dimensional stability, lower moisture absorption, and a silky smooth playing surface. The roasted process enhances the contrast of the figuring for an even more luxurious appearance.

Top
Roasted Red Cedar
Roasted red cedar (Thuja plicata) comes from North America, particularly the Pacific Northwest, where it is known for its lightweight nature and warm, reddish-brown hues. The roasting process, or torrefaction, enhances its rich color, deepening it to a darker, more amber tone, while also improving stability and resistance to humidity changes. The grain is typically straight and uniform, with a fine, slightly oily texture that contributes to a smooth finish. Naturally aromatic, roasted red cedar is valued for both its aesthetics and durability.
