Saito Guitars / S-622 SSH Indian Rosewood Carrot Orange [20]

Outlet special price on display!

Saito Guitars has a workshop in Kawaguchi City, Saitama Prefecture.
The "S Series," the first solid model introduced in 2015, is impressive for its simple and lean design that pursues "functional beauty" and "playability.
In three years, the total number of units shipped has exceeded 1,000, and the brand continues to grow rapidly, with a dramatic increase in the number of loyal customers over the past few years.

The standard design of this model is the best in the lineup, and it is easy to compare with other brands.
The body is made of 2-ply alder, the neck is hard maple, and the fingerboard is Indian rosewood.
The characteristic design of the fingerboard edge extending to the head on the first string side is intended to prevent the head from twisting after many years of use.
The scale length is 648mm long, the fingerboard R is 10-12" compound, and the frets are Jescar nickel silver.

The body finish is a thin matte urethane finish, which is both easy to maintain and resonant.
Joint plates are made of original aluminum 5mm thick.
Joint screws are bolt joints with nuts embedded in the neck side, instead of the usual wood screws.

The neck shape is slightly thicker with a firm and comfortable grip.
Due to the ingenuity of the joint, it does not feel particularly uncomfortable to play even at high frets.

Hardware is made by Gotoh.
Cruson-type trim-lock pegs are equipped with a two-point vented saddle tremolo.

Pickups are Scream front/center and Sledge a rear.
Controls consist of a PU select with a 5-way lever switch and M.Volume/M Tone.
Coil tapping is possible with the push-push of the tone.

The sound is impressive first of all for its "sharpness" and "quick startup.
The "speed" directly connected to the high-precision construction, which is a characteristic of "Saito Guitars," stimulates the senses.
The bright and muscular single coil and the rear hum with a sense of bite.
The tone is clean and organized with no unnecessary low frequencies, making it easy to create a sound and allowing for good sound removal in an ensemble.
The balance between the PUs is well balanced, and a single unit can be used for a wide range of applications from roots music to modern pop/rock.

The low action and comfortable playability that comes from the high-precision machining and setup are definitely worth experiencing.
Saito Guitars is the only company that can offer such a cost-effective price for a Japanese-made instrument made in a Japanese workshop.
Please experience the modern vintage style that covers today's needs.
