Mayones Aquila Aged V24 S 6 Guitar, Rosewood Fretboard, Gotoh 510 Vintage Tremolo, Aged Monolith Metallic Olive Nitro
Feast your eyes on this absolutely stunning Mayones Aquila Aged V24 S 6! Finished in a beautiful Liquid Red Gloss, this is a double-humbucker version of the Aquila that Mayones released in 2020. The new pickguard-less design shows off the gorgeous hand-aged Monolith Metallic Olive Nitro that hearkens back to vintage axes of yesteryear nicely.
The build quality is every bit what we've come to expect from Mayones - masterful from top to bottom. The fretwork is incredible, and the recessed Gotoh 510 tremolo allows for freakishly low action and a smooth response. The wenge neck feels silky-smooth, and the rosewood fingerboard is of the utmost quality. The TEW roasted maple neck is super-fast to maneuver on, but is also not paper-thin. It has a bit of a more traditional C-shaped neck than many of Mayones' shred-oriented builds.
For this model, Mayones has introduced new proprietary Velvetrone pickups for their guitars alongside their venerable Velvetrone bass pickups. This Aquila features the phenomenal Ironside bridge & Solium neck set. The Ironside bridge pickup is ripping and aggressive with high output, focused midrange, and powerful highs and lows - just the way we like it! The Solium neck is smooth, warm, and rich, perfect for vocal-like lead tones and shimmering clean tones.
Although vintage-inspired and a friendly transition for guitarists preferring a more traditional guitar feel in hand, this is definitely not your father's S-style guitar - it's even better. If you want to get dirty with it, it can do that. If you want to clean it up, it'll handle that as well.
Simply put, they've nailed it!
