The Ice Age Just Got a Serious Upgrade.
Sometimes the most beautiful accidents happen in wood selection. That 3A Eye Poplar top didn't ask to become the centerpiece of this Regius 6, but Mother Nature's grain patterns combined with Mayones' custom Ice transparent finish create visual drama that shifts and flows under stage lights like frozen lightning captured in timber.
Poland's Mayones luthiers have been quietly perfecting their craft for decades while flashier manufacturers chase marketing headlines. This 2024 Regius represents their latest breakthrough: those brand-new Velvetrone pickups that finally give their guitars the same sonic sophistication their bass pickups have enjoyed for years. The Ironside bridge pickup delivers exactly what its name promises - aggressive, focused midrange with powerful highs and lows that cut through any mix without compromise. Meanwhile, that Solium neck pickup provides vocal-like lead tones and shimmering cleans that'll make your amplifier sound more expensive than it actually is.
You've probably experienced the frustration of guitars that look stunning but feel awkward during extended playing sessions. This neck-through construction solves that problem through intelligent engineering: eleven-ply maple-mahogany-wenge-amazakoe lamination creates superior stability while that 16-inch radius ebony fingerboard flattens everything out for lightning-fast technical work. Those glow-in-the-dark Luminlay side dots aren't just cool stage gimmicks - they're practical navigation aids during dimly-lit performance situations.
That swamp ash body paired with the exotic top creates tonal balance between warmth and clarity, while Hipshot hardware keeps everything mechanically bulletproof. The fixed bridge provides rock-solid intonation and sustain transfer, while those GripLock tuners eliminate slippage issues that plague lesser hardware.
This represents everything Mayones learned during their decades of refinement, distilled into one instrument that proves boutique guitars don't require boutique maintenance headaches.
