Banshee Deluxe
A maple-top version of Kauer's winged Banshee, keeping the neck-through mahogany construction but adding a tighter, brighter maple-top voice.
About this guitar
Banshee Deluxe takes the standard Banshee’s neck-through Spanish Mahogany construction and adds a maple top for extra bite and top-end clarity. It ships with Rickard Cyclone locking tuners and StringDog strings, and is configurable across 1-3 pickups (Wolfetone, Lollar, or TV Jones), Nickel or Gold hardware, and binding options ranging from White/Black up to premium sparkle finishes.
