Aristides H/06 2019, Dark Grey Sapphire Marble

From Aristides:

"H/0 Headless Series Aristides guitars push boundaries to create truly new designs that benefits guitarists’ playing & creativity. Headless guitars provided a huge opportunity to innovate & apply both the strengths of Dutch craftsmanship & Arium’s unique material properties to a fast-growing style of guitar with a dedicated fanbase that wants the best. A true modern ergonomic guitar needs to leverage 3 things: an idealized ergonomic headless guitar design, skilled luthiers to build it to the highest standards, & a material that goes beyond the sonic & material limitations of wood. That’s why H/0 models feature carefully-designed multiscale fretboards & balanced bodies, proprietary hardtail & tremolo bridges built with Hantug Guitars, & an extreme tonal clarity that even led to the development of H/09, the premier high-performance 9-string guitar. When a guitar is lightweight, portable, stays in tune, doesn’t cause fatigue during long playing sessions, has an explosive tone that jumps out at you, & provides a balanced feel across the entire fretboard: you’re empowered to focus on your new song, your big show, & simply experiencing the joy of guitar."

This 2019 H/06 is a truly excellent guitar, and plays effortlessly. It would be a great entry point into the world of multi-scale guitars as it feels very comfortable in hand and because of the angle at which you play, the multi-scale frets are barely noticeable. It would also be excellent on stage or studio with a veteran shredder! The Lundgren "The One" pickup is extremely versatile providing massive overdriven tones but due to its full range sound can also provide full clean tones from dark fat chords to sparkling melodies. The guitar itself is in excellent condition with very little signs of use and includes its original bag, serial card (and wallet), as well as the truss rod tool and strap with matching strap locks.
