Paoletti Nancy Loft SS Guitar, Roasted Maple Fretboard, 205 Tobacco

PLAYER'S PERSPECTIVE

Paoletti guitars are absolutely extraordinary boutique guitars with a unique take on a tried and true, classic design. The beautiful brass split-design pickguard and aging on this Nancy Loft SS in a classic 205 Tobacco sunburst provides an artistically unique take on the classic T-style format. 

Not to mention it plays fantastically as well - the meticulous attention to detail to make that possible is immediately evident. The fretwork, fit and finish, which needs to be of the highest standard for a guitar of this price point, more than meets expectations - the craftsmanship is something to marvel at and the neck is expertly carved from top to bottom.

Tonally, this guitar is obviously akin to an old-school ""T"" type axe with great dynamics and clarity that only quality hand-wound pickups can provide. The bridge pickup is twangy, punchy and bright while having some great fullness and body to it. The neck pup, which is open-coil similar to a Strat pickup, easily cops that rich, warm, and creamy T-style neck vibe with a touch more high-end bell tone, and it sounds absolutely phenomenal with some overdrive. The pickups are hand-wound, which gives them a lot of the same sort of magic that was found in some of the most iconic guitars of yesteryear. The choice of hardtail bridge and traditional T-style controls (albeit with a blinged-out set of cosmetic appointments) offer a simple and reliable platform for the discerning player.

Who needs a Ferrari when you can have the Ferrari of guitars?

Handmade in Italy by master builder Paoletti Fabrizio, these really are special instruments that have that ""masterbuilt"" vibe, and this one is no exception.
