Formerly known as the Stratospheric, the Alfa model is Paoletti's S-Style guitar featuring 130-150 year old reclaimed chestnut body and superb custom hardware appointments. It is available in SSS, HSS and HH configurations and in both the solid body "Loft" and thinline "Lounge" variations.
How Does It Play?
The neck carve is Paoletti’s ‘Medium C’ profile, which is full and supportive all the way up the neck. The string action sits at just over 4/64” on the low E string and right at 4/64” on the high E string, measured at the 12th fret.
The wiring configuration pairs the neck and middle pickups with the first tone knob, leaving the bridge pickup with its own tone control. This is the ideal setup for 3 singles, allowing more flexible tone shaping and balancing of all pickups.
Weight: 8lb 6.1oz
The Paoletti hardshell case pictured is included.
