The Severin ST1 – Cherry & Walnut
Timeless Woodcraft. Iconic Tone. The Ultimate All-Genre Workhorse.
The Cherry Walnut Severin ST1 electric guitar is a masterclass in tonal balance and visual elegance. By pairing a classic Cherry top with a rich Walnut back and the world’s most famous pickup duo, we’ve created an instrument that feels as “at home” playing smooth jazz as it does cutting through a heavy rock mix.
Artisanal Tonewoods & Detail
- The Foundation: A solid Walnut back topped with a beautiful book-matched Cherry top.
- Signature Inlays: The top features intricate Maple, Walnut, and Bloodwood details that flow seamlessly into the neck design.
- Hand-Finished Luxury: Includes custom Cherry pickup rings and matching control knobs. The entire body features our signature ergonomic carves for a comfortable, “broken-in” feel from day one.
The Neck: Custom Comfort
- Construction: A Cherry neck with matching Bloodwood and Walnut accents, topped with a striking Figured Walnut fretboard.
- The Profile: Carved to a familiar ’62 Strat C-shape with a contoured neck ferrule for unrestricted access to the high notes.
- Durability: Loaded with medium/large stainless steel frets, aluminum inlays, and a dual-action truss rod for a lifetime of precision play.
Electronics: The Legendary “JB/Jazz” Set
For this build, we chose the Seymour Duncan SH-4 (JB) and SH-2n (Jazz)—arguably the most versatile humbucker set ever created.
- Bridge (JB Model): The ultimate “hot-rodded” humbucker. It provides powerful low end, detailed highs, and an upper-mid crunch that helps your solos cut through any mix.
- Neck (Jazz Model): A bright, clear humbucker that stays articulate even under heavy distortion, but cleans up beautifully for glassy jazz and blues tones.
-
Advanced Switching: A 5-position Super Switch and CTS pots give you five distinct voices, ranging from thick humbucking power to crisp single-coil clarity:
- Neck Humbucker
- Single Coil (Neck)
- Neck & Bridge Humbuckers
- Single Coil (Bridge)
- Bridge Humbucker
Premium Appointments
- Tour-Grade Stability: Outfitted with Hipshot Grip-Lock tuners, a Hipshot Fixed Bridge, and a Graph Tech TUSQ XL nut and string trees for flawless tuning.
- Studio Silent: We’ve shielded the control cavities, back plate, and pickup routes to ensure your signal stays pure and hum-free.
- Included: Grover Quick Release Strap Locks and a premium gig bag.
