FEATURES
With the M-Series, you're stepping into the realm of master craftsmanship and exceptional wood quality. We source only the finest, 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.
M-Series have a distinctive exotic wood top, that follows the curve of the armrest. You also have unrestricted access to our Master Grade Library for your guitar's top. Whether you're captivated by the intricate patterns of a Flamed Maple, the striking lines of a Zebrawood, or the deep hues of a Burled Walnut, your aesthetic vision can be fully realized.
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 !
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.
So elegant !
M-Series grants you access to a whole set of premium options like matching wooden knobs, headstock veneer, matching tuner knobs, and many more.
You choose everything.
From core specs like number of strings & scale length down to side dots material, colors & string gauge
Featuring Mother Nature
Sometimes as a creator, you have to step back and let Nature do its thing.
Sure we can create cool shapes, unique finishes, and put them all together. But we can never reach the level of diversity and uniqueness of our main natural ressource as guitar builders.
From the tree, to the family owned exploitations or cooperatives, we bring you the best exotic tops you can dream of. Chances are, if you can think about it, Mother Nature has already done it.
Turbocharged. by Belforti
Every M-Series comes equiped with our Modern Electronics Configuration.
Contrary to what the name might evoke, the Modern Configuration is modern by its power, versatility and potential, rather than being specifically meant for modern genres like prog or fusion. But it does it like nothing else !
This Configuration features active electronics, more complex layouts for advanced tonescaping, and our AURA III Pickups Family. These are noisecancelling pickups with modern components and advanced architectures.
