Guitarra Eléctrica Rapier 44 ~ Arctic White
The Rapier™ 44, is the latest model in this successful series of electric guitars by the legendary UK guitar builder and designer Alan Entwistle, based on the original iconic Rapier’s that played a major role in the industry of British built guitars from the 1960s.
Now with a quartet of Entwistle EWR64 mini-double coil pickups and Rapier’s famous switching system producing 15 sonic permutations, the new generation Rapier 44, looks stunning finished in Fiesta Red with white scratchpate and Arctic White with black scratchplate, and retains all the glorious charms and visual characteristics of the original.
Significant tonewood and hardware upgrades include an African Okoume body, 4-bolt, Canadian hard rock maple soft ‘C’ profiled neck with fully adjustable truss rod and a 23 fret (including zero fret), 12 inch radius fingerboard.
For accurate intonation, tuning stability and perfect return to pitch from the original HI-LO vibrato design, the Rapier 44, now includes smooth friction-free precision cut, 43mm GraphTech nut, Wilkinson WJ55 E-Z Lok machine heads and high spec’d roller bridge.
