A top-tier S-style electric built from 25-year cabinet-aged, frequency-matched wood with hand-wound pickups.
About this guitar
Lentz’s Reserve S Style brings together 25-year cabinet-aged wood, an uber-flamed neck, and three hand-wound single-coil pickups matched to each individual guitar’s resonance. NOS paper-in-oil capacitors and hand-fitted hardware round out what Lentz considers its most refined S-style build. Built to order.
