The Guitar Player's Resource
Polish Precision Carved from Four Decades of Obsession.
Gdańsk might not be the first city that comes to mind for guitar manufacturing, but after forty years of relentless refinement, Mayones has transformed this Baltic seaport into a boutique guitar mecca that rivals anything coming out of Nashville or Los Angeles. This Regius 6 represents everything those decades of obsessive craftsmanship can accomplish with unlimited creative freedom.
That exotic figured top isn't just eye candy - it's a geological masterpiece that took Mother Nature centuries to create and Mayones luthiers mere hours to transform into sonic sculpture. The satin finish lets that grain structure breathe while providing tactile feedback that gloss finishes simply can't match. Your picking hand immediately notices the difference between this organic texture and the plastic-smooth surfaces most manufacturers consider acceptable.
You've probably held guitars that look expensive but feel ordinary. This Regius works in reverse - that ebony fingerboard provides silky-smooth navigation while the maple back and neck create tonal foundations that respond to your every nuance. At 6 pounds 14 ounces, extended playing sessions won't punish your back, yet the instrument maintains enough mass for serious sustain and resonance.
Those Bare Knuckle pickups represent serious tone-chasing wisdom. These British-wound magnets deliver dynamic response that makes your amplifier sound better than it has any right to, whether you're laying down crystalline cleans or unleashing face-melting leads. The push/pull volume pot doubles your tonal options without cluttering the control layout with unnecessary switches.
That abalone-style binding isn't just decorative trim - it's architectural detail that defines the instrument's elegant curves while providing visual reference points during complex passages. Polish craftsmen understand that the finest instruments serve both eyes and ears without compromise.
This represents what happens when traditional European craftsmanship embraces modern materials and electronics while refusing to sacrifice the human touch that separates handcrafted instruments from assembly-line production.
