Balaguer Espada Select 2023 Limited Rustic Black

Balaguer Espada Select 2023 Limited

The Balaguer Espada Select 2023 Limited Sereies is a limited run of the Select Series Espada, with upgraded features, such as Roasted Birdseye Maple fingerboards (instead of the standard Ebony), a Hipshot Brass hardtail bridge (instead of the standard Balaguer bridge), and a super-hot set of Balaguer Hypernova Ceramic humbuckers.

The Balaguer Espada Select 2023 Limited is hand-crafted to exacting specs by the incredibly skilled luthiers at Balaguer's South Korean facility, with plenty of premium features, and a gig bag included. The Espada Select 2023 Limited's Rustic Black finish really makes the grain of its Ash body pop, and makes an excellent tonal foundation for a pair of Hypernova Ceramic humbuckers. Hypernova humbuckers feature a ceramic magnet for aggressive articulation, tight bass, and instantaneous attack. Being super hot (12.2k Ohms in the neck, 17.2k Ohms in the bridge), they're obviously perfect for chugging brutal riffs, and shredding speedy licks - this super high output also means that they split extremely well. Just engage the coil-splitting for incredibly articulate, chimey cleans too!

A bound Roasted Maple neck with 16" radius Roasted Birdseye Maple fingerboard, 22 medium jumbo stainless steel frets, and black block inlays are perfect for hours of comfortable playability, while premium features like a graphite nut, Balaguer locking tuners and a Hipshot brass hardtail bridge ensure solid tuning stability.

At Riffs & Licks Music, we think the Balaguer Espada Select 2023 Limited, finished in Rustic Black, is perfect for anyone who wants a vintage-inspired workhorse with killer looks, smooth playability, and an incredibly versatile tonal palette.
