V3 Neo-Antique Series
The design of V1 and V2 and CGK's quintessential checkered stitching have been retained, but the pickups and painting process have been changed to cut costs. The V3 series responds to the request of our customers for a more reasonable price.
Three types of colors are available. Cream Pistachio," a pale green with a classic mood, "Peach Pink," a mellow pink that is also in fashion, and "Curacao Blue," a retro blue with a satin finish.

While in the past, the surface of the body was repeatedly coated with lacquer and sanded to a glossy finish, the new series takes advantage of the wood's original surface (unevenness and grain) and only uses a wood sealer to apply a thin layer of coloring, eliminating the need for subsequent polishing processes. The thin coating is easily scratched and may peel off, but the character of the wood and the sound of the body are preserved.
Like a leather wallet or a pair of denim jeans, the more you use your guitar, the more it will become your own unique guitar.
<Pickups and Specs
Although it looks like a Tele type, the body is made of mahogany, and two single Alnico V pickups are mounted on the neck and bridge, giving it a sharp yet distinctive sound with fatness and warmth in the midrange that can be used for various genres of music. The satin-finish neck also supports smooth fingering.
