About the Sarā 6 - Essential - Outer Space Black
The Sarā 6 Essential is a six-string electric guitar built for players who want a modern, high-performance instrument without unnecessary complexity. Clean lines, serious electronics, and a playing feel that disappears under your hands — this is a working guitar designed to perform.
The poplar body is finished in Outer Space Black, a deep matte black with a subtle cool undertone that absorbs light rather than reflecting it. Against it, the leopard ebony fretboard stands in striking contrast — its wild, high-contrast figuring one of the most visually distinctive surfaces found on any instrument at any price point. The roasted ash neck adds stability and a naturally aged feel, its treatment process reducing moisture sensitivity and enhancing long-term resonance.
At the heart of the Sarā 6 Essential is Belforti's asymmetric 3D Flow neck profile — a signature geometry with no parallel edges and a continuously shifting cross-section that adapts to the natural position of the hand as it moves across the neck. There are no hard transitions, no uncomfortable edges. Just a neck that feels like it was shaped specifically for your grip.
Stainless steel frets pair with the leopard ebony surface for a fast, precise playing experience built to last. Electronics follow an HSS configuration — a Seymour Duncan TB4 in the bridge position alongside two SSL-4 single coils — covering clean, warm cleans through to aggressive, high-output rock tones without breaking a sweat.
The Sarā 6 Essential is a focused instrument. No excess, no compromise.

The universal standard for electric and acoustic guitars. Versatile and intuitive, covering all genres and playing styles with countless tuning possibilities and ergonomic familiarity.
Scale Length : Long 25.5"
Classic guitar scale length delivering bright response, clear attack, and balanced string tension. Standard on many iconic electric guitars, offering precision and dynamic range.
Number of frets : 22
Traditional fret count favored for its vintage aesthetic and tonal response. Provides slightly warmer neck pickup placement and classic feel.
Neck Profile : 3D Flow
A modern, rounded profile inspired by dynamic ergonomic design. The 3D Flow features a continuously shifting apex — offset across the neck’s length — to follow the natural rotation of the wrist as your hand moves up and down the fretboard. It encourages relaxed posture and fluid transitions, especially during position changes.

Flatter fretboard radius for fast playing, low action, and effortless bending. Ideal for technical and contemporary playing styles.
Woods
Woods
Body : Alder
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 : Norwegian Maple
Maple is a classic neck wood prized for its density, stiffness, and stability. It offers a snappy response and clean vibration transfer. Its medium weight and closed grain provide excellent resistance to warping. Maple is highly reliable for precision neck construction and offers a bright, clean visual aesthetic.
Fretboard : Indian Rosewood
Indian Rosewood is a dense, oily hardwood with a naturally smooth feel. Its open pores provide excellent grip and tactile comfort. Highly stable across climates, it resists wear and moisture absorption. Its dark brown hues often feature subtle figuring, giving fretboards a warm and classic visual appearance.

Colors
Outer Space Black
Matte black is one of the most demanding finishes to execute well — and one of the most striking when done right. Unlike gloss, which reflects and amplifies, a true matte surface absorbs light, giving the instrument a presence that is quiet and commanding at the same time. Outer Space Black sits at the darker, cooler end of the black spectrum — neither warm nor neutral, but deep and intentional. It shows no fingerprints, develops no shine with age, and lets the geometry of the body do the visual work. A finish for players who prefer their instrument to speak through the amp, not the light rig.
paired with a 3 ply black pickguard

The Essential Series comes equiped with our Classic Electronics.
It is meant to fit in any ensemble, any genre and to be as easy and straightforward as possible.
Fully passive circuits with simple controls.

Pickups
Seymour Duncan Quarter Pound SSL4 & TB4
Seymour Duncan TB-4 Quarter Pound — Bridge
The TB-4 is the Trembucker-spaced version of Seymour Duncan's Quarter Pound humbucker, designed for guitars with wider string spacing at the bridge. It delivers the same high-output, thick, and present tone as the standard Quarter Pound — a strong midrange character, exceptional cut, and more aggression than a vintage-spec humbucker — in a format optimized for accurate string-to-pole alignment. Full, loud, and direct.
Seymour Duncan SSL-4 Quarter Pound Single Coil
The SSL-4 applies the Quarter Pound philosophy to a standard single-coil format — higher output, more presence, and a stronger fundamental than a vintage-spec pickup, while retaining the snap, clarity, and bell-like top end that single coils are known for. It sits well in a mix without heavy EQ, and responds cleanly to both light and aggressive playing dynamics.
