TORINO SERIES
Lengardo GuitarsA solid body guitar with bolt on neck, alder body and fingerboard in maple or rosewood. A small body, with no edges, that perfectly fits the musicianβs physiognomy. The body-neck bevel makes the instrument comfortable even in the most difficult positions. Electronics choice is literally unlimited: traditional configurations with three single pickups or HSS, handcrafted Flametones for a vintage sound, JBE for a modern sound, another version with 2 P90 handmade by Van Zandt, or a mini single mini or HSH versions with JBE pickups. The latter, thanks to a superswitch and an autosplit system, try to interpret the idea of "the absolute guitar" that many musicians have in mind: the odd positions, in fact, offer a Les Paul style configuration, with full Humbuckers. The second and fourth positions are typically Strat style, with a split Humbuker in counterphase with the single. The best of two opposing guitars brought together in a single instrument. In the custom series the mechanics are self-locking Schaller, while the bridge can be a choice of Gotoh or the new Floyd Rose Rail Tail.

MILANO SERIES
Lengardo GuitarsA Les Paul style guitar, with mahogany body and flamed maple top. The use of tonal chambers reduces the weight of the instrument, sparing musicians from annoying physical problems. The wiring is traditional, with a 3-position switch. Without compromising the instrumentβs ergonomics or sound performance, the small sized mini Humbuckers allow the addition of a single in the center position, activated separately by a push-push switch, thus expanding the available sounds range. A 3 mini Hambucker setup is also available for those who like an even more intense output. The comfort is increased by a slightly wider neck, 1 3/4" wide at the nut. A sharp intonation and brilliant sound are granted by Schertler mechanics and an ebony fingerboard. This guitar is also available on request in solid body version, made of special woods or using custom electronics, depending on current availability.

VENEZIA SERIES
Lengardo GuitarsA semi-acoustic low-bass guitar dedicated to jazz and blues musicians, but also suitable for more powerful genres. The evolution of this model followed a more traditional concept. The pickup setup is made of two Humbuckers and a 3-position switch. Van Zandt developed these pickups exclusively for Lengardo, handcrafted with AlNiCo IV magnets. In alternative to the more versatile Van Zandt electronics, we also offer two Flametone setups: 59 Classic or Filterflame. The first one gives the guitar more rock, scratching and aggressive sounds, while the second, thanks to the special Filtertron style Pickups (in Full Humbucker format) developed by Alessandro from Flametone is perfect for fingerpicking, jazz, and classical rock. The sounds range has been expanded with two push-pull switches, that enable each of the two pickups to be individually split. Alternatively, a version with 2 P90s is also available, strictly Van Zandt of course. The neck is 1 3/4" wide at the nut and features an ebony fingerboard. Flamed maple top on the high gloss finish and choice of glossy or matt varnish. Tuning machines.
