Hi there! We present anew the same guitar as last month in the hope that there will be more talking about it .
Every question is welcome!

ALABARDA

Neck, back and sides: hollow monocoque structure in carbon fiber

Top: carbon fiber

Neck shape: thin D

Fingerboard: flat in carbon fiber


Frets: medium nickel silver


Nut: carbon fiber

Dots: aluminium


Machine head: carbon fiber by Heart-Sound 


Bridge: strings-through-body in carbon fiber with steel saddles

Switch: 5 position


Pickups: P90 by Electrical Guitar Company


Knobs: recycled from an old radio

Switch cover: ebony and maple

Weight: Kg 2,710

Scale: 25,1”

The Alabarda is the result of a personal sound research constantly in progress, it’s an instrument that comes with the aim of extending the expressive possibilities of the musician. It is loosely based on IsotonaG by Electrical Guitar Company, but adopts a unique design and is hand-forged from a single piece of carbon fiber. Its particular characteristics include: totally hollow structure (body and neck), dynamic and precise response to touch, richness of harmonics, great sustain, stability and resistance to atmospheric agents and temperature changes. Since the neck is maintenance-free, the Alabarda has no truss-rod.

We are Taurr Guitars, a small team of people who still believe in new analogue sounds. Our, albeit still limited, range of guitars includes instruments with a original design and re-interpretations inspired by traditional shapes that have made history. For our work, in addition to all the necessary tools for handwork, we also use a CNC machine and 3d modeling softwares for the design phase. The seat of our lab is Trapani, Sicily, Italy.

Hi all, we are Taurr Guitars, a small team of people who still believe in new analogue sounds. Based on the idea that the electric guitar world still has a lot to be expressed, we make instruments by having the research of new sonic possibilities as focus, using creative and innovative construction techniques and by making intelligent and functional use of materials. We use carbon fiber, aluminium, wood and fiberglass, taking advantage of the physical and mechanical properties of each individual element. Our, albeit still limited, range of guitars includes instruments with a original design and re-interpretations inspired by traditional guitars that have made history. For our work, in addition to all the necessary tools for handwork, we also use a CNC machine and 3d modeling softwares for the design phase. The seat of our lab is Trapani, Sicily, Italy.
