Mayones Regius Pro 6 Guitar, Ebony Fretboard, Locking Tremolo, Trans Dirty Purple Gloss

PLAYER'S PERSPECTIVE

We're proud to offer this gorgeous Mayones Regius Pro 6 from our master luthier friends in Poland, Mayones Guitars! Like all Regius models, this axe features a Neck-Through construction and provides an excellent balance between classic design and modern tone. This one features a Trans Dirty Purple Gloss finish over a 3A flame maple top for a fearsome but beautiful look, while the binding on both the neck and body adds a nice touch of class.

The 11-ply neck feels absolutely amazing with a certain earthiness to the touch that feels like an extension of your hand, and while it's very slim, it doesn't feel paper-thin either and fills the hand nicely. The fretwork is spectacular, allowing for nice low action all the way up and down. This one features a Schaller double-locking tremolo with a familiar design that stays in tune perfectly, and is capable of pulling off some serious pitch-bending acrobatics.

The custom-wound, Mayones-exclusive Bare Knuckle TKO pickup set is awesome! While definitely designed for high-gain chug, they surprised the players here at the shop with their awesome clarity on lower-gain settings, especially with the coil-split on the volume control. Of course, the TKOs excelled the most at  aggressive distorted riffage, and we were very pleased with how both single notes and chords sounded huge without getting muddy. Load up all the saturation and distortion you want without ever worrying that your sound is going to get muddy or lose definition.

The combination of the tonewoods used, incredible build quality, and the custom-made pickups make this check all the boxes, as a top-of-the-line custom instrument should. If you need to melt faces, it doesn't get much better than a Mayones guitar. 

ITEM SPECIFICS

The Bare Knuckle TKO pickups are specifically designed for Mayones. They are high output and each set is custom wound for the specific model that it's going into. 

“A lot of Mayones customers play progressive, technical styles of rock so I decided to use a combination of ceramic powered bridge humbucker and Alnico V powered neck humbucker. This produces an excellent combination of power and range of tone, producing 3 very distinct tones from bridge, bridge/neck and neck selections on the pickup selector. The ‘TKO’ bridge has plenty of output, bass notes track very quickly, mid range is punchy and highs sound full with plenty of weight behind each note. Neck tones are clean and open with a woody snap and great balance of output with the bridge. Mid position split coil tone is very tight and percussive with a very clear cut in the highs. Overall the ‘TKO’ humbuckers offer a wide range of saturated rhythm and lead tones coupled with dynamic cleans perfect for modern rock guitar styles and they’re the ultimate partner for Mayones Guitars.” – Tim Mills (Bare Knuckle)
