Opus Magnum — at a glance
Ultra-limited & singular
We build a very small number of these each year. Every piece combines Ancient Kauri (~50,000 years) with certified provenance, amber purfling and mammoth accents.
Projection engine
X-WAVE chemically-modified double-top + X-ARS back & sides deliver exceptional projection, stability and long-term durability.
Playability & precision
Turkowiak Asymmetric neck, elevated ebony fingerboard, gold ARTuners and ArcFret™ EVO-GOLD for refined intonation and feel.
Key innovations we use
X-WAVE double-top
Our chemically-modified double-top for power, balance and immediate response.
X-ARS back & sides
Layered body with an ultra-hard inner surface for strong reflection and climatic stability.
Acoustic Tubes
Channels inside the neck tune resonances and enhance sustain.
Impedance Bridge
Optimized energy transfer with stiffening wings and ebony mass distribution.
Sigmoidal Side Joint
Patent for a stronger, more elegant side connection.
Amber HeadLight
Translucent natural Baltic amber on the headstock for a distinctive, luminous look.
Amber BackLight Rosette
Back-lit amber rosette that softly glows and highlights premium craftsmanship.
ArcFret™ EVO-GOLD
Individually profiled, curved fret geometry that pre-compensates intonation across the fingerboard — significantly lighter and configurable for any number of strings, scales and tunings while keeping classic playability and serviceability.
We build very few Opus Magnum guitars each year. Many custom options available on request.
