For players who crave boutique craftsmanship with a story in every detail, the Novo Custom Shop Serus J delivers a truly inspiring playing experience — available now at Haggerty’s Music. Built with a balance of vintage soul and modern precision, this instrument reflects Novo’s dedication to artistry, tone, and individuality, making it as much a creative tool as it is a statement piece.

Finished in a beautifully worn Ocean Turquoise with a medium distress level, this Serus J feels like a well-loved companion from the moment you pick it up. The tempered pine body resonates with a lively, open character, while the figured tempered maple neck and fingerboard add both visual elegance and tonal clarity. The chunky “C” neck profile fills the hand comfortably, offering a substantial feel that encourages expressive playing and confident control across the fretboard.

At the heart of its sound are a pair of Fralin P-90 pickups, delivering everything from warm, articulate cleans to gritty, harmonically rich overdrive. The Mastery M1 bridge and NV vibrato system provide exceptional tuning stability and smooth pitch manipulation, while premium components like locking tuners and Jescar frets ensure reliability and performance. Every detail — from the bakelite pickguard to the black block inlays — has been carefully considered to create a guitar that stands apart.

Whether you’re recording, performing, or simply chasing inspiration, this Novo Custom Shop Serus J offers a unique voice and feel that invites you to play longer and dig deeper. Complete with a Novo deluxe padded soft case, this instrument is ready to go wherever your music takes you.
