Shiver - GES More

The darkness of modern black meets the organic warmth of an open pore finish on this supercharged version of the Shiver GES More range. The grain of the wood shows through under your fingers, and the solid, double-cut body has a reduced thickness for direct, almost fusional contact. You'll feel the effect of the worked chamfer taking the pressure off your forearm, turning hours of practice into a pleasure without physical strain.

The heart of the instrument beats to the rhythm of its caramel-coloured roasted maple neck, a good choice that guarantees immunity to variations in humidity. This structural stability is complemented by a 635 mm pitch, a clever measure that reduces string tension for easier bends and a rounder tone. The maple fingerboard completes the picture with exemplary glide, ideal for traversing styles from jazz to metal with cheeky ease.

The rich electronics define the identity of this instrument, thanks to its two double-coil pickups that can be transformed via a push/pull system. This gives you access to 8 distinct sound configurations, from the slam of a single pickup to the raw power of the humbucker. The white dots on the pot position markers guide you through the darkness of a stage, and the built-in vibrato invites you to sculpt the timbre to your heart's content.

The natural resonance gains in depth thanks to the through-string system, an architecture that transmits every vibration directly to the heart of the wood. Your notes gain in sustain, supported by a self-lubricating Graphtech nut and self-locking tuning machines that lock your tuning. The custom backplate completes an instrument that's just begging to be played.
