Hawaiian Guitar: Surf Series

The Soul of Surfing in the Form of Music: Hawaiian Lap Steel Guitar – Surfcaster Edition.

The Surf Series Hawaiian Guitar is much more than an instrument; it is a functional work of art designed for collectors, enthusiasts, musicians, and producers seeking an unmistakable look and premium tone quality. Forget assembly lines and mass production: this piece is born from meticulous artisanal lutherie, handcrafted unit by unit.

Inspired by the golden era of classic surf culture, this edition features a "Fish" surfboard body shape with a swallowtail, measuring 66 cm in length, 19 cm in width, and 4 cm in thickness. Machined entirely from solid Jequitibá wood: ensuring deep natural resonance and sustain for notes and chords that seem to last forever.

Floating Fretboard: Total Freedom

To create the authentic vibrato and hypnotic glissandos of Hawaiian music, blues, country, and rock, we developed a 30 cm Floating Fretboard. Because it is a fretless design (where the strings never touch the wood), your tone bar (slide) has a perfectly free and unobstructed gliding zone, ensuring smooth transitions and extreme precision.

Pure Tone: Direct and Organic Signal

In the Surfcaster Edition, we combined the beachy, surfboard design with the unmistakable DNA of the twang tone and the balanced resonance of solid Jequitibá. Equipped with a gold Telecaster-style bridge and a robust Alnico 5 single-coil pickup (6k to 7k ohms resistance, black ABS bobbin, and red copper base plate), it delivers pleasant bright highs, warm snaps, and extremely defined, full-bodied lows.

The circuit was designed to deliver the pure sound of this unique combination: we implemented the Direct Out system. The pickup is wired directly to the output jack (gold boat-style), without passing through volume or tone potentiometers that "steal" frequencies. This guarantees the cleanest, most organic signal with an impressive dynamic response.
