Designed by the legendary UK guitar builder and hardware specialist Alan Entwistle, the new Rapier Deluxe is based on the original iconic Rapier’s that played a major role in the industry of British built guitars and basses from the 1960s.

Whilst maintaining all the visual charm of the originals, like all models in the Rapier Series, the Rapier Deluxe features significant upgrades to meet the needs of the modern player. These include okoume the chosen tonewood for the body, a maple neck and 22 fret jatoba fingerboard, modern hardware includes a sensitive Hi Lo vibrato system where stable tuning and accurate intonation and return to pitch are spot on every time, via Wilkinson machine heads, a precision cut GraphTech nut and a fully adjustable roller bridge.

It’s arguably the classic 60’s Rapier sonics that contributed to a host of famous pop songs during the British Beat Boom, it’s here again, where Entwistle has excelled by installing 3 Entwistle low-noise EWR 64 pickups in the flagship ‘angled middle’ format, which, combined with Volume and Tone controls and slide switches for middle pickup on/off and Bass-Cut, offers an array of sounds from warm smooth jazz to jangly bright.

Looking effortlessly stylish finished in See Thru Red with a White Pearl scratchplate, Gloss Black with Tortoise scratchplate or Arctic White with a Black Pearl Scratchplate.
