Kauer Guitars Gripen - Faded Seafoam
Prepare to embark on a sonic adventure with the Kauer Gripen, a truly groundbreaking instrument that marks a new chapter for Kauer Guitars. This isn't just another guitar; it's a bold statement, a collaborative masterpiece from the minds of Doug and Max Kauer. With its angular, cubist, and decidedly modern aesthetic, the Gripen stands out from the crowd while retaining that unmistakable Kauer soul. Its neck-through construction provides the perfect foundation for its aggressive nature, ensuring incredible sustain and resonance.
Crafted from Spanish Mahogany for both the neck and body wings, the Gripen delivers a rich, warm, and resonant tone that will inspire your playing. The 24.75" scale Wenge fretboard, adorned with unique Gripen-specific Crown inlays, offers a smooth playing surface and a distinct visual appeal. This particular model is loaded with a dynamic Lollar Novel 90 in the neck position and a powerful Lollar Imperial in the bridge, offering a versatile palette of tones from articulate cleans to searing leads. While the Gripen is a fresh design, it carries the legacy of Kauer's commitment to exceptional craftsmanship, ready to be wielded by the next generation of guitar heroes.
