Jaguar's Opalescent Golden Sand, Lamborghini's Oro Metallizzato, and Porsche's Cognac Brown. The coveted earth tones of the great touring cars, built to catch the light at speed. This Sonar wears the tradition well: a brown-and-gold pearl that shifts as it moves.
A dark brown multi-ply tortoisehsell pickguard and Indian Rosewood headstock overlay lean into the rich warm aesthetics, while a pair of our V.O. humbuckers deliver sizzle, clarity, and mid-range along with excellent touch sensitivity and attack. A string through bridge with compensated saddles provides outstanding attack and sustain while keeping the look and feel that fits perfectly with this no-nonsense tone machine.
