Hype GTR Elite II

Love a natural wood finish? This one is for you!
For the Elite II we went the exotic wood route and used some of the most premium peices we could get our hands on. We've been waiting years to be able to use this particular Burl on a run, and due to its limited availability, this run of Hype GTR Elites is even more exclusive than our last.
Keep in mind though; there are only 95 of these guitars worldwide.
We opted for an African Mahogany body for its overall darker colouring which contrasts perfectly with the black binding and rare Karelian Birch Burl veneer which we've used on both the body and matching headstock. We've used a 5pce Flame Maple, Padauk and Wenge set neck topped with Birdseye Maple fretboard to set the tone for these awesome instruments. With the mix of materials used, each guitar is truly unique with its own individual markings. The Elite II comes with our favourite Blizzard and Concordia pickup combo, along with all the usual things you'd expect to find in our GTR range like our own custom hardware.
The Hype GTR Elite II is available in your choice of 6, 7 or 8 string with a white and red 'Elite' hardcase included in the price.
*As with all GTR models, these instruments are built in partnership with our friends at World Musical Instrument Co. in Korea.
**No two peices of wood are identical and therefore we cannot guarantee the guitar photographed will be the one you receive. Our images are for illustrative purposes and colour may vary slightly in production.
***Pre-orders are not available to our European customers via this site. Please refer to our Dealer page to find your nearest location and to check available stock.
