{"product_id":"novo-idris-custom-sonic-blue","title":"Novo Idris Custom - Sonic Blue","description":"\u003cp\u003eFor players who have spent time with S-style guitars and know exactly what they love about them — the feel, the resonance, the tonal palette — but find themselves wanting something built to a higher standard than the vintage market or mass production can reliably deliver, the Novo Custom Idris is the answer Dennis Fano has been refining for years. This is Novo's S-style instrument: tempered pine solidbody, 25.5\" scale, compound-radius rosewood fingerboard, MannMade Vibrato, and the kind of HSS pickup configuration that makes an S-style guitar genuinely versatile rather than just theoretically so. This example arrives in Sonic Blue with light nitro aging — a color with deep roots in the vintage S-style tradition, here worn with an authenticity and craft that mass-market instruments can reference but never quite replicate. The Natural headstock keeps the aesthetic grounded and honest, the 3-ply parchment pickguard sits perfectly against the blue, and vintage cream Strat-style knobs complete a visual picture that is instantly familiar and entirely elevated.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhere a standard S-style guitar gives you HSS and calls it versatility, the Idris Custom builds a genuinely sophisticated tonal system around that configuration. The Fralin Modern PAF in the bridge delivers humbucker warmth and weight with PAF articulation and harmonic nuance — none of the compressed, scooped character of a standard hot humbucker — while the Fralin Vintage Hot Strat single coils in the middle and neck positions bring the chime, clarity, and bloom that define great S-style playing. The Push-Push series\/parallel on the tone control gives the PAF two distinct voices, and the Blend control working alongside the 5-way switch opens up a spectrum of pickup combinations that a standard 5-way simply can't reach. Jumbo Jescar 57110 frets across the 9.5\"–14\" compound radius board make the playing feel fast and comfortable from the first position through the last, the Chunky \"C\" (.880\") tempered maple neck has the substance serious players gravitate toward, and Novo 18:1 locking tuners keep the MannMade Vibrato in tune through everything you put it through. At 7lbs 11oz of tempered pine under light nitro aging, this guitar does everything an S-style should do — and then some.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eModel: \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan\u003eIdris Custom \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBody Construction:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan\u003e Solid\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBody:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eTempered Pine\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBody Finish:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e Nitro Light Aging \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNeck:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan\u003e Tempered Maple\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFingerboard:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan\u003e East Indian Rosewood\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFingerboard Inlay:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eMOTO Dots\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNut:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan\u003e Bone (1.650\")\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNeck Profile:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e Chunky \"C\" (.880\")\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHeadstock:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e Natural\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFrets:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e Jumbo 22 N\/S Jescar 57110\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTruss Rod:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e Fully Adjustable\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRadius:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e 9.5\" - 14\"\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eScale Length:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e 25.5\"\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNeck Finish:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e Light Aging \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTuners:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003cmeta charset=\"UTF-8\"\u003eNovo 18:1 Locking Tuners \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHardware Color:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e Nickel\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBridge Style:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan\u003e MannMade Vibrato\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePickguard:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e 3-Ply Parchment\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePickups:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e Fralin Modern PAF \u0026amp; Vintage Hot Strat\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eControls:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e Vol. Tone (Push-Push: Series\/Parallel), Blend, 5-Way\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSeries:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e Custom\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eKnobs:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan\u003e Strat Tone, Vintage Cream, Strat Volume, Vintage Cream \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan\u003e 7lbs 11oz. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eString Gauge:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan\u003e Stringjoy 10-48\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCase:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e Novo Deluxe Bag \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Novo Guitars","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53578294558904,"sku":"9869","price":4199.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0888\/2795\/3336\/files\/Novo261286_001availableatInterStellarGuitars.jpg?v=1790180733","url":"https:\/\/www.interstellarguitars.com\/products\/novo-idris-custom-sonic-blue","provider":"Interstellar Guitars","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
