There is nothing out there quite like a Ronin
in the high-end Luthier built guitar market. The Ronin team has built a line of
exciting and ground-breaking new and original designs. Everything from the feel
of their guitars neck carves, fret work, setups, extremely resonant Master
Grade Old-Growth Redwood bodies and Ronins pickup designs; all culminate to
create instruments that are equally inspiring to play and hear as they are to
marvel at. Not to mention the extreme attention to detail given to their lightly
applied and artfully aged finishes and revolutionary work on getting the most
out of a guitars 2 pin Vibrato system; which balances perfectly using a slanted
2-spring method, on their 2-Pin Mannmade Vibrato equipped guitars like this
one.
With Ronins very limited production rate, this unbelievable new heirloom
quality Morningstar will only grow in value over time and man is it a dream
guitar that plays and sounds even better than it looks, if that is even
possible. This build in particular incorporates some of the most loved and
innovative Ronin features like their famous Magic Button which brings into play
a specialized passive piezo pickup that sits inside of the bridge pickups
cavity route. This can lead to many musical results and enhances the sounds of
the very resonant lightweight Old Growth Redwood body. Upon pressing it, you'll
be able to enhance all the subtle nuances of the instrument. Letting you tap
and play behind the nut or scratch at the springs. You can also get acoustic
like tones that are blend-able with the other pickups. As you roll down your
guitars volume control/controls, it becomes more present, this can lead to
lap-steel, banjo, dobro and many other experimental but very musical sounds.
This Morningstar features three Foil-Bucker Mini pickups. Ronin pickups are so
satisfying to the ear. They need to be heard to be believed. You can get
everything from fat-growling PAF humbucker style tones, mixed with more than a
just a hint of Gold-Foil clarity at its best, to more ethereal & airy
Strat-like tones that cuts through the mix without sounding the slightest bit
harsh (perfection). Mixed with the Magic Button, you will always find new and
exciting tones out of this instrument. This guitar just inspires & begs to
be played. The neck is nice and chunky and our favorite Ronin hand carved neck
profile, their Med C, which measures .88" - .92"
