The hand-built Nashville offset that masters tone and character down to the smallest detail
The Novo Idris is not a guitar you buy because it looks good, though it does. This is an instrument you choose because you know what you want: a hand-built offset from Nashville, finished in a stunning Lake Como Blue over '64 3-Tone Burst with medium distressing. Novo Guitars builds in small batches, with an obsessive attention to detail that you feel in every action.
The Tempered Pine body gives the Idris an open, airy character with a remarkably low mass and a natural resonance that you feel before you even plug it in. The combination of a Fralin Modern PAF in the neck and a Fralin Vintage Hot Strat in the bridge delivers a dynamic palette: from warm and full to bright and cutting, with a Blend control that seamlessly mixes the two pickups. The Push-Push Tone control also switches between series and parallel wiring, further expanding the tonal possibilities.
The Figured Tempered Maple neck has a Medium C profile (.830") and a compound radius fretboard from 9.5" to 14" in Rosewood, inlaid with MOTO Dots. The MannMade Vibrato bridge ensures stable tuning and rich sustain, supported by Novo 18:1 locking tuners. The 4-Ply T-Shell pickguard, cream accents, and matching peghead complete a guitar that operates on the same high aesthetic and functional level.
The Novo Idris comes with a Novo Deluxe Padded Soft Case. An instrument for the player who makes no compromises.
