"Relish Guitars" is an up-and-coming brand from Lucerne, Switzerland.
Relish Guitars was created by the collaboration of Silvan King and Pirmin Giger, and their detailed designs and unique ideas have impressed musicians on the front lines, creating innovative guitars that have been called the Rolex of the guitar world. We are producing.
The body, which is the most distinctive feature of this machine, "Jane", has an unprecedented and original structure, with 7 layers of plywood bonded to the front and back of a one-piece machined aluminum frame.
This unique structure allows for a long sustain with a natural, long and slow decay of the sound, as well as a live sound and rich overtones that make you feel as if you were playing a full acoustic.
In addition, the fingerboard is made of high-strength bamboo, and the highly durable stainless steel frets firmly absorb string vibrations after picking, creating a stable sound and a clear sense of pitch.
In order to fully pick up the finest sound produced by the entire guitar, we have developed an original handmade pickup, the "Relish Bucker XV", which outputs a well-balanced and clear output.
Furthermore, this machine is equipped with a piezo system in the bridge saddle.
It is now possible to output a pleasant acoustic sound that makes full use of the reverberation of the guitar.
The volume control is independent from the magnetic pickup, so you can adjust the output balance by hand, and you can also output it independently by using a Y cable (sold separately).
The Push/Pull switch built into the piezo volume is a voice switch, and when it's down, it's a rounded, full sound, and when it's up, it's a clear sound with less middle.
Their creative ideas not only revolutionize the structure of musical instruments that produce sound, but also extend to the internal parts that are usually invisible to the naked eye.
Many people may feel a sense of discomfort the moment they see the exterior.
This is because I can't find the pickup selector switch.
Another feature of Jane is the touch-sensitive switch attached to the body.
This is a magnetic pickup selector that can be operated by touching your fingers or palm.
The LED will light up when the pickup is on, so you can easily see it even on a dark stage, and it will also be a great way to show off on stage.
A 9V battery is built into the body to drive the switch, separate from the one used to drive the piezo, but it is independent from the pickup wiring, so there is no effect on noise or sound.
*If the battery runs out, the switch will turn OFF and no sound will be produced.
A removable back panel using magnets has been adopted in consideration of maintenance without impairing the sound.
Since no screws are used, there is no need to prepare any tools, and the panel can be removed by hooking it with a pick, making it easy to access each part.
In addition, their ideas are packed into every part, such as the adoption of an "RF connector" that allows for easy pickup replacement, and the use of high-grade Emerson Custom parts.
This is a new proposal from Switzerland that was created as a result of pursuing new sounds and ease of use for guitarists based on the history of guitars.
In terms of condition, there is very little signs of use, there are no noticeable irregularities on the frets, and there is plenty of room for tightening the truss rod, so you can use it for many years to come.
