Borealis Strat - Black & White Burst

This is a Borealis strat shaped guitar in black and white burst with black Aurora strings and a B gig bag.


These Borealis guitars are a lot of fun. The brand was started by Aurora, the great American string company known for their colored strings with a natural, rich sound that brings out the best in most every type of guitar.

If you have a B in your band name, or your first or last name, one of these is a must have for stage or living room. Jim has an older B shaped guitar in black with red pinstripes and red strings like the Batmobile. He had it out at a neighborhood jam to celebrate the recently passed Adam West, a great American and a great Gothamite. Jim's last name begins with B so his is staying in the museum. Rumor has it he bought it from Bruce Wayne.

How do they play? Pretty darn Bad@$$ (see what we did there? used a B-word to describe how they play?)

These will stand up to any entry level guitar by any of the majors and most of the partscaster builders. The strats have that signature sound. The B guitars are voiced like their pickup array would suggest, meaning HH like an LP, and so on. The B basses really rock and are a great value for an entry bass.

Best of all, you can hang the headstock on a clothes hook on your door.

The B shaped guitar and bass bodies also function as a handle, and especiallly on the bass, a place to rest your fingers when thumb slapping. According to legend, the Borealis B shape predates the Esteve Aivai Zibanezay handle guitar. Word is they copied Borealis' homework.

And if your name doesn't begin with a B? Well then get everyone to call you Buddy or Baby (we're an equal gender guitar seller), and voila! You're good to go. Rumor has it a certain famous black eye glass wearin' Chucky got his nick that way.

That's my story and I'm stickin' to it.

Each one of these unique guitars has a fresh set of Aurora strings.
